KINGSTON, Ark. (AP) — 42-year-old Aaron Villines was killed in the shooting Thursday in western Newton County.

Villines and another hunter were walking to check on a deer that one of them had shot when Villines apparently slipped on a moss covered rock and fell onto his loaded rifle, which then discharged and shot him in the chest.
