Man Accidentally Shot Dead While Taking Pictures At Gun Range
Story out of Anchorage, Alaska:
An Anchorage man was killed Saturday after stepping into the line of fire while attempting to visually capture other people shooting guns in Sutton, according to Alaska State Troopers.
Troopers were first notified of the incident at 10:36 p.m. when someone called to report a gunshot wound victim at a place known by locals as the Gravel Pits in the area of Jonesville Mine Road.
When troopers arrived, an individual at the scene was performing CPR on 30-year-old Army veteran Adam Malaby.
Malaby was medevaced to Providence Medical Center, in Anchorage, where he was pronounced dead.
“Investigation revealed Malaby had stepped in the line of fire while attempting to video or photograph others shooting and was shot by another individual that was firing a .40-caliber pistol,” troopers explained.
The area they were shooting in isn’t an official shooting range, but the sounds of gunshots and all-terrain vehicles are a constant. After living nearby for more than two years, James Meyers said he’s gotten used to some of the noise. Cont. (Video)
