CHELAN — A hunter sitting in a pickup in Chelan County was killed by a bullet that passed through a metal gate and fragmented before piercing the truck window.

County officials say Timothy Neal Cook was hit in the neck by a bullet fragment Sunday and died instantly. The 36-year-old Port Angeles man was with two other deer hunters about seven miles west of Chelan.

The shot was fired by a Lynnwood hunter who was trying to unload rounds from his bolt-action rifle when it went off.
