High School Student Actor Dies After Firing Prop Gun
November 17, 2008 by Lance Carter

This is just awful. A high school student in Utah died Saturday evening when the prop gun he was playing with discharged. While the blank-shooting prop gun carried no bullets the gas in the gun has the same energy and when the trigger was pulled the 17-year-old suffered severe head injuries.
The accident occurred just moments before he was to take the stage in the play “Oklahoma!” He was found by other students with the pistol still in his hands.
