KENT, Wash. (AP) - A man who pleaded guilty to assault in an accidental theater shooting has been sentenced to a year of work release.
KOMO-TV reports Dane E. Gallion drank beer and took anti-anxiety medication before going to see “13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi” in January.
Police say Gallion brought a gun to the theater because he feared the movie’s content might spark a shooting.
A 40-year-old woman’s clavicle was shattered when she was shot in the shoulder.
KIRO-TV reported family members said during sentencing Friday that Gallion has a family to support.
He was also ordered to pay medical costs and lost work.
