FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (AP) - A 24-year-old homeless man has been charged with manslaughter in a fatal shooting in Fergus Falls.

According to the complaint filed Wednesday, Devin Gray was at a gathering of friends Feb. 26 when he held a gun to his head. It says 29-year-old Amanda Kemmer took the gun away. It says he told police her persuaded her to return it, and that the gun went off when she handed it back to him.

The bullet went through Kemmer's hand and into her chest. She died at the scene. The Daily Journal of Fergus Falls reports Judge Mark Hansen set

bail at $200,000 after prosecutor Michelle Eldien said Gray has no

home, no job, no dependents, no ties to the community and a history

of depression.

A public defender will be appointed later. Gray's next court date is March 15.
