KAMLOOPS (NEWS1130) – One man is dead and another is in serious condition after an accidental shooting and a frantic ride to the hospital led to a crash in the Interior.
RCMP say a 25-year-old man was accidentally shot in the wrist near in the community of Barnhartvale, just south of Kamloops.
The man and others were shooting at clay pigeons last night. But it was the drive to the hospital that proved more dangerous when the driver lost control on a curve, rolled the truck, ejecting both the driver and the already-injured passenger from the vehicle.
The shooting victim died in hospital early this morning, while the driver is listed in serious condition.
RCMP say alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
