I think the guy needs to work on shot placement personally, and if he shot a rage it would have likely cut his entire leg off ; )

I don't believe this story!

If you shoot anyone with a broadhead anywhere. There will be in need of a hospital!

Whether this story is true or not, lets break this down into the main line of the topic.

"He" in no way should be classified as a hunter and someone who thinks s#!* like this is the way to handle it shouldn't be classified as one either. Show me people that get busted for stuff like that and that will make my day!

I take it you have never had something stolen that you have worked months to save up for?
I personally would never handle it that way. It was simply a story I heard.

You may not have handled it the same way, however you say it did make your day to hear it. I am sure you were happy that the guy was caught but not happy that he was injured. If true that guy could lose his leg or if he did not go to a hospitol he could die of infection. If all of this is true someone could have died over $150 tree stand. Not sure that I could live with that on my shoulders.
