An 18-year-old Colorado woman who tried to surprise a friend was shot dead by the startled man, police say. Premila Lal had apparently sneaked into the house 21-year-old Nerrek Galley was staying at and jumped out of a closet Friday night. (CNN reports the Longmont home belonged to Lal's family, and Galley was a family friend.) Two witnesses, including Lal's 15-year-old brother, were present, and police say her death was "unintended and extremely tragic," reports the Times-Call.
Police say drugs and alcohol do not appear to be a factor in the death. Galley is being held on charges including reckless endangerment, but Lal's father says he feels no anger toward the man. "We lost a daughter, so we don’t want anybody else to lose their son, you know, especially when it was an accident," he tells CBS. (It wasn't the only deadly shooting this weekend: A 3-year-old girl died in Yellowstone's first fatal shooting in more than 30 years.)
