Rice student dies at shooting range

Rice University officials have identified the woman found fatally shot Saturday night at a Pasadena shooting range as graduate student Emma Lundgren.
Lundgren, 28, was a violinist studying at the Shepherd School of Music and is from Sweden, said university spokesman B.J. Almond.
Lundgren was found lying facedown on the firing line, dead from an apparent gunshot wound to the head. She had rented a weapon at the Pasadena Gun Center and Shooting Range at 206 Shaw, Pasadena Police Department spokesman Vance Mitchell said.
"Apparently she went back to the firing line and was firing this pistol for about 20 minutes when management came over the PA system and said for everyone to leave so they could clear the line," Mitchell said.
Employees discovered Lundgren's body shortly before 7 p.m.
"Right now there are no details as far as exactly what happened," said Almond, adding that the university is also grappling with the disappearance of undergraduate computer science student Matthew Wilson, 20, who has been missing since Dec. 14.
Lundgren was the recipient of a Dorothy Richard Starling Foundation Scholarship in Violin.
Her death remains under investigation.

Anyway, I thought it sounded a little like an accidental shooting by this Matthew Wilson and he left the scene scared to take responsibility. It may be unrelated.
