OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An Omaha teen has been charged with manslaughter in the shotgun death of his friend over the weekend.
Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine said he charged 18-year-old Blake Miller in the death of his friend, 18-year-old Tanner Farrell.
Kleine had previously said Farrell was killed Saturday night as a group of teens handled a rifle inside a southwest Omaha.
On Tuesday, Kleine told the Omaha World-Herald that the group was in Miller's house when Miller pulled out his .22-caliber rifle and pointed it at Farrell.
Kleine said Miller pulled the trigger, thinking it was unloaded, and shot Farrell in the chest.
Farrell died at an Omaha hospital.
