461

A Dallas police officer was charged on Sunday with manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a neighbor, who authorities said was shot by the officer when she walked into an apartment she thought was her own and mistook the man living there for an intruder.

30 year-old Amber Guyger was arrested Sunday three days after she shot and killed 26 year-old Botham Shem Jean.

The shooting happened late Thursday evening.
