A Texas man has been charged with murder after a bizarre and deadly game involving a firearm went horribly wrong.
According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, 37-year-old Sean Odonnell and his friend, 34-year-old Aaron Prout, were allegedly taking turns shooting at each other while wearing a Kevlar helmet inside a home on Pennington Hills Drive in Spring, Texas, about 30 miles north of Houston. Gonzalez called the incident “hard to believe,” describing the pair as “so-called friends” who were playing a reckless and dangerous game until tragedy struck.
Deputies initially responded to the home on August 17 after receiving a call reporting a possible suicide. When they arrived, they found Prout, a British national living in Texas, suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. He was rushed to a nearby hospital but later died from his injuries.
Sheriff Gonzalez said investigators quickly grew suspicious, as “things weren’t adding up” with the original suicide story. After further investigation, detectives charged Odonnell with murder on Thursday, August 28.
Odonnell is currently being held at the Harris County Jail on a $300,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear before a judge on September 2. It remains unclear if he has entered a plea or secured an attorney.
