Florida man is dead after asking friend, ‘What, are you going to shoot me?’
|
[NYDAILYNEWS] "What, are you going to shoot me?"
Those are believed to be the last words 26-year-old Florida man Sean Cook asked his pal Shea Harkins before a rifle shot took his life and landed his buddy in jail, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.
The pair were playing video games at Harkins’ Palm Harbor, Fla. home Thursday evening when the host started showing off a Colt M4 rifle he’d been customizing.
Harkins, also 26, reportedly pointed the gun he believed to have been unloaded at Cook’s chest.
Cook then asked Harkins, apparently kidding, if he planned to shoot him. Later claiming he didn’t know there was a bullet in the rifle’s chamber, Harkins reportedly did just that.
"Victim and (defendant) are best friends," according to a police report. "(Defendant) was showing off a new attachment to his Colt M4 rifle (and) attempted to clear the firearm, but did not."
Cook was taken to Mease Countryside Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

in Pinellas County, west of Tampa.
The police report made it clear there was no indication that drugs or alcohol were involved.
