The shooting occurred Friday night in downtown St. Louis, the city's Metropolitan Police Department said, in an area dominated by vacant lots beside a football stadium.
The female victim, identified in a police report as Becca Campbell, 26, was a passenger in a car involved in an auto accident. Her 33-year-old boyfriend was driving, the sources told CNN.
The boyfriend, who wasn't identified, told police that the couple had bought a gun because of fears of unrest related to the pending grand jury decision on the shooting of Michael Brown, the sources said.
He told investigators that as they drove late Friday night, the victim waved a gun, jokingly saying the couple were ready for Ferguson, the sources said.
He ducked to get out of the way of the gun and accidentally rear-ended another car. He said the accident caused the gun to go off and she was struck by a bullet in the head, the sources said.
The victim was rushed to a hospital but died.
The investigation is continuing because police want to be sure the story as told by the boyfriend is correct, the sources said. Police are awaiting gun trace results, as part of the ongoing investigation.

guns are not toys. Did they not discuss that? He knew his face should not be in front of the gun. Did she think it was gangsta to wave it around? Silly girl. Sad out come. We should ban guns.

How long are they going to stretch this verdict out for? They still trucking in protestors?

The female victim, identified in a police report as Becca Campbell, 26, was a passenger in a car involved in an auto accident.

I'm betting she's black.

EDIT - I was wrong, she's a wigger.

This is an example of someone who shouldn't have handled firearms.

Obviously, she thought it was a toy.

Hey you! Outta the gene pool!

[BrewTech]

Hey you! Outta the gene pool!

Your wish was apparently her command...

[Hillbilly]

You are all wrong, she was murdered. He shot her in the head, hit another car then placed the gun in her hand. The "official" story sounds way fishy too me.

Kind of crossed my mind too. Maybe he was being the dick. Or just plain decided to pop her one.

Hillbilly might be like some kind of Columbo detective guy.

[Horn]

Wow, that story was pretty hard to believe. LOL!

So you're doubting that the po-po did not do a gunshot residue test on the bf's hands??

[madfranks]

The OP article states the cops are still investigating...


The investigation is continuing because police want to be sure the story as told by the boyfriend is correct, the sources said. Police are awaiting gun trace results, as part of the ongoing investigation.

[collector]

Doesn't make sense - he rear ends a car, everything moves forward in the car. Her finger was supposedly on the trigger and the gun pointing at her face, then the forward momentum makes her finger press against the trigger ?? Trying to make a mental picture but it just doesn't make sense

[Spectrism]

Yeah... blame the dead person. I don't buy into the story.

[expat4ever]

And if the evidence comes back that her black BF did it then even more for them to get all uppity about.

[govcheetos]

God loves irony. Ha!

[Glass]

So they dusted the guy for residue. Results pending. Check hands for burn marks maybe. in case someone grabbed the barrel.

[Twisted Titan]

The direction of the gunshot is key.

He had to have god like timing to shoot her and rear end the nearest car to produce a accident.

I would like to see what eyewittness said

point being ................ you just cant make this shit up
