Description
Defendant shot and killed decedent with a handgun. There are conflicting versions of the shooting. Defendant claims he had stored the loaded gun in a chair on the previous evening; that on the day of the shooting he pulled the gun from the chair by its barrel when the hammer cocked; and that the shooting occurred when he was trying to lower the hammer to a safe position. There is evidence that the shooting occurred in a room where there were several young men; that defendant had been "jumped" and took a shot at someone. Under either version, there is substantial evidence of a negligent use of a weapon.
