The Terre Haute Police Department says 21-year-old Brandon S. Perrine was playing around with his gun because the safety lock appeared to be on.
The Indiana State University student was drinking when he put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger.
Police believe he didn’t intend to kill himself.
It happened Friday night at Perrine’s apartment on North 6 1/2 Street in Terre Haute.
