A shooting at the Tanner Gun Show at the Denver Merchandise Mart last week was an accident and no charges will be filed, according to Adams County officials.
Investigators said that about 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 20, Joshua Hertzler was looking at a gun on a display table at the gun show and when he began handling the gun, it accidentally fired.
A bullet hit his friend of 20 years in the upper body. The friend is listed in good condition, said Adams County DA spokeswoman Krista Flannigan.
The investigation continues into other aspects of the case but the DA's office is offering no other details.
