Police have arrested a 21-year-old Junction City man, Corey Vanzlike, on suspicion he shot his roommate while they were playing video games Saturday night.
The charges of Vanzlike's arrest include suspicion of involuntary manslaughter and obstruction. A 17-year-old has also been arrested on charges of aiding a felon and obstruction.
The roommate, 21-year-old Robert Orr, was taken to Geary Community Hospital and was later pronounced dead. An autopsy is pending. Police say they found Orr lying in the doorway of the mobile home suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest.
Junction City Police Chief Bob Storey says it appears the group of friends were "messing around" when someone introduced the gun as they were playing video games and the shooting occurred.
