Man Dies Teaching Gun Safety
Learning proper gun safety can be a matter of life and death. That holds true for those who give the lessons, as well as for the students they teach.
On Friday, an Imperial, Mo., man insisted on instructing his girlfriend as to the safe way to handle firearms before the two were to travel to a local shooting range, St. Louis television affiliate KDSK reported. What followed was anything but a textbook gun safety class.
According to KDSK, witnesses said James Looney, 40, arrayed several firearms before his pupil, then demonstrated various safety features by pointing two guns to his own head and pulling the triggers.
When Looney attempted a similar demonstration with a third gun, it went off, fatally wounding him, KDSK said.
Sheriff's deputies believe that alcohol was involved, KDSK reported.

Teacher Accused of Selling Grades
TRENTON, N.J. -- A New Jersey social studies teacher has been charged with accepting cash from students looking to improve their grades.
Thirty-year-old Megan Laboy is accused of collecting more than $1,400 from Colts Neck High School students during the 2008-09 school year.
Police say the Howell resident told students she'd give them extra credit and the money was for charity. But they say she kept the money for herself.
She's charged with third-degree theft by deception. She was released on her own recognizance Monday.
She began working for the district in 2001. But district officials say she's no longer employed.
She's refused to comment to The Associated Press.
