RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) -- An Old West gun battle re-enactor in South Dakota who fired live rounds instead of blanks during a show and wounded three onlookers is set to appear in federal court.
Paul Doering, of Summmerset, is scheduled to appear in the U.S. District Court in Rapid City for an arraignment and a change of plea hearing Thursday morning.
The 49-year-old acknowledged in a plea agreement signed earlier this month that he tampered with evidence after the June 17 shooting during a performance in Hill City that injured three people. He says he tried to hide two handguns and ammunition after the incident because he is a convicted felon.
A grand jury indicted Doering in July on a charge of possessing a firearm as a felon.
