WV KNIFE AND GUN CLUB

(10/12/2006)

STUDENT SHOT - A Musselman High School student was accidentally shot after another student mistook a 22-caliber pistol for a toy. Police said the shooting happened Sunday morning at a residence in south Berkeley County. Authorities said both the shooter and victim are boys born in 1992. The two freshman were staying at the house for a sleep over the night before. Authorities said the shooter fired two rounds into the floor before pointing and firing the gun near the victim's head. The victim was "relaxing" on the floor at the time. A bullet entered the area behind the student's ear, lodging around the jaw and tongue area. He is expected to make a full recovery, although the bullet couldn't be removed. No charges are expected to be filed.
