Prosecutor: Texas teen mistakenly killed friend in school
Prosecutor: Texas teen mistakenly killed friend in school
HOUSTON (AP) — A 16-year-old student mistakenly shot his friend in their Houston-area high school’s ROTC room before fleeing and being arrested several hours later, officials said Wednesday.
The two were in a room at Bellaire High School with four other students but no adult Tuesday afternoon when the 16-year-old took a semi-automatic pistol out of his waistband and pulled the trigger, killing 19-year-old Cesar Cortes, said Lt. Greg Bartlett.
=======================================
Kid was charged with manslaughter. 'He only made a mistake by pulling the trigger on his semi-auto handgun.'
