FAIRFIELD, Ill. (AP) - An investigator says a teenager accidentally shot a friend with an arrow and killed him while the two were turkey hunting in southern Illinois.
Wayne County Sheriff Jim Hinkle says 20-year-old Aaron Long of Fairfield was killed Thursday at Sam Dale Lake.
Hinkle says a 16-year-old hunter accidentally shot Long in the back after mistaking the victim for a turkey.
The sheriff calls the shooting an ``extreme tragedy'' and says it's unlikely the teen will be charged.
