Woman killed at Adams Co. gun shop :: 08/23/2011

There are still questions surrounding the shooting death of a woman inside an Adams County gun shop.

It was her husband holding the gun when it fired; the main question is was this an intentional shooting?

Police say they are still investigating, trying to figure out if this was intentional or just mishandling of the gun.

The woman was in the gun shop looking to buy her own pistol when she was shot by her husband.

61-year-old Beverly Klepic of Harrisburg was inside Miller's Munitions with her husband Sunday afternoon. It's believed Klepic wanted a Kel-Tec 9 mm pistol, one similar to her husband's.

In front of the shop owner the husband got out his own loaded gun. It fired, hitting Klepic.

"We cannot come out and say if it was an accident or anything like that, we have to keep an open mind with this investigation," explained State Police Corporal Tom Pinkerton. "What we know is at best it was a careless handling of a firearm."
