TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A Florida State University student was
killed and another injured in an accidental shooting in an off-campus apartment.
Authorities say 21-year-old Ashley Cowie of Orange Park was shot
in the chest early Sunday when a rifle owned by 20-year-old Evan
Wilhelm accidentally discharged.
The bullet passed through Cowie and struck the wrist of 21-year-old Keith Savino of Tampa.
FSU Police Chief David Perry said the shooting occurred as Wilhelm was showing friends the new accessories on his rifle about 1:16 a.m.
Wilhelm, of Ponte Vedra Beach, was arrested on a manslaughter charge and booked into Leon County Jail.
Wilhelm is a member of Lamda Chi Alpha fraternity.
The shooting happened in Heritage Grove, an apartment complex that houses fraternity students.
