A former Twin Cities woman was fatally shot while participating in a Citizens Academy exercise at police headquarters in her adopted city on Florida's southern Gulf Coast, authorities said.
"In a horrible accident," Mary Knowlton, 73, of Punta Gorda, "was mistakenly struck with a live round" Tuesday evening after she and another of the 35 academy participants were randomly chosen for a "shoot-don't shoot" role-playing exercise that involves decisions about when to use lethal force, said Police Chief Tom Lewis.
