Well known and highly respected PH, Paddy Curtis, was murdered in his Bulawayo home in early morning darkness. Apparently, he opened his door to let his dogs out and robbers were waiting outside and ambushed him. He was able to send out an SOS for help, but they arrived too late. He was found near his still locked gun safe with 2 gunshot wounds to his head. A security team with dogs is presently hunting down the perps who murdered him.

Wherever in the world you may be, raise a toast at sunset to a great African man, PH & former Selous Scout. R.I.P. Bloodnut.

Rest in Peace, sir.

I did not know the man but have read about him and known men like him.

At least he was getting his weapon, when the bastards got him.

There is a special place in hell for those evil men, and it will reign down upon them.

Raising a toast to a great African adventurer, Salut!.

Godspeed for you and condolences to your family.

Terrible news. My condolences to family and friends.

 

[RBD]

Omg after all he’d lived through what a crazy way to die. I’ve hunted with him in Zim very successfully and one of the best I’ve known. I have so many funny memories of him….
Hunt the cowards that ambushed him!
Hope those close to him are safe-

Awful news

 

[Brent in Az]

Tragic end of a legend. The evil in this world, takes too many good people.

 

[BloodyKnuckles]

Very sad news.

 

[Biddleman]

Tragic. My condolences to his family.

Stories like this piss me off to no end. A good person murdered by worthless animals for nothing!
I hope they catch the bastards and put them down like the rabid dogs they are.

 

[sestoppelman]

I didnt know him but read stories about him for many years. Sad day.

RIP

A good friend that hunted with Paddy in Tanzania texted me this terrible news this morning. Can’t believe it. My friend is angry and sad at the same time. RIP Paddy and thanks for providing so many great memories for your clients!

 

[Ridge Runner]

Condolences to his son.
May he Rest In Peace.
I hope the SOBs are quickly caught and properly (painfully) executed.
Cheers to Paddy.

I didn't know Paddy but it sure seems that we have lost a lot of good members of the hunting fraternity in the past few months. God bless to his family and friends.

 

[Wishfulthinker580]

I still have a show recorded with him hunting the Selous. This is terrible. RIP

 

[buckmarkhunter]

Very unfortunate, condolences to his family, friends and coworkers

 

[BRICKBURN]

My thoughts go out to his dear friends and family who have lost a good man in such a senseless manner.
RIP Paddy.

 

[Randy Bo]

Rest In Peace, Brother.
Prayers for his family and friends.
No promise of tomorrow.

RIP Paddy, a living legend should never be taken down like this. Hopefully they find the dirtbags that did this.
