The shootings by homeowners are likely to renew debate surrounding so-called "stand your ground" laws, which govern the use of deadly force in self-defense, legal experts told USA Today. "While they were leaving the residence, once they determined that they were at the wrong house, the subject came out on his porch for whatever reason and fired two shots, one of which struck the vehicle that Kaylin was in,"Murphy said. A 20-year-old woman was shot dead by an upstate New York homeowner Saturday night after the driver of the car she was riding in turned into the wrong driveway, authorities said. Gillis' death drew attention far beyond the rural town in upstate New York.

They drove up this driveway for a very short time, realised their mistake and were leaving, when Mr Monahan came out and fired two shots,” the sheriff said. On Saturday night, just before 10 p.m., Kaylin Gillis and a group of her friends were traveling in a caravan of two cars and a motorcycle that mistakenly drove up that same driveway. They were looking for a friend’s house — and were met with deadly gunfire, killing Ms. Gillis, 20.

The woman and the three friends she was with never got out of the car on Saturday night, Jeffrey J. Murphy, the Washington County sheriff, said at a news conference. They were turning around after realizing their error when the man, Kevin Monahan, 65, stepped out of his house, in Hebron, N.Y., and fired at least two shots at the car, the sheriff said. The group's caravan of two cars and a motorcycle turned around once they realized their mistake. But authorities allege Monahan came out on his porch and fired two shots from a shotgun, striking Gillis with the second shot. “This is a very sad case of some young adults that were looking for a friend’s house and ended up at this man’s house who decided to come out with a firearm and discharge it,” Murphy said. He added that Gillis was “an innocent young girl” and that he knew her family personally.

"This is a very sad case of some young adults that were looking for a friend’s house and ended up at this man’s house," Murphy said. Gillis' friend pulled into the driveway of a home that they mistakenly believed belonged to another friend, authorities said. A 20-year-old woman with dreams of becoming a marine biologist was fatally shot by a homeowner Saturday when the car she was in turned into the wrong driveway in upstate New York. The shooting sparked shock and questions about how a simple mistake could have ended in deadly violence. The shooting happened just after midnight in the block of Woodruff Place.

Deadly Shooting

His client had been afraid when he pulled the trigger, Mausert told WAMC/Northeast Public Radio. Mausert disputed there was any standoff, saying he was on the phone with his client as law enforcement officers were at Monahan's door. He said Monahan was talking to police outside his door and officials would not say why they were there and did not have an arrest warrant. The lawyer said Monahan was exercising his right to remain silent when he declined to talk to police about what happened. The group then drove to the neighboring town of Salem, about 50 miles northeast of Albany near the Vermont state line, and called 911, according to Murphy. Emergency crews arrived and performed CPR but Gillis was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Monahan has not said anything to investigators about why he allegedly started shooting. Sheriff Murphy said that officers responded to his property following the fatal shooting but Mr Monahan was uncooperative and refused to come out of his home to speak to police. Mr Monahan was arrested and charged with second-degree murder – after a standoff with police.

New York homeowner Kevin Monahan, 65, has been charged with second-degree murder after fatally shooting Kaylin Gillis, 20. "We have very very close-knit community," said Katie Elsworth, the middle school principal. Monahan's lawyer, meanwhile, spoke publicly for the first time Tuesday, calling the sheriff's version of the events a "superficial, simplistic" account of what actually happened. In a statement sent to CBS News, Gillis' family called her "a kind, beautiful soul and a ray of light to anyone who was lucky enough to know her." Two shots were fired, one striking Gillis, who was sitting in the passenger seat, according to authorities. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul at the time called it "senseless" and said, "No one should be shot for showing up to the wrong house."

The incident took place Saturday night in Hebron, a small town northeast of Albany. A 20-year-old woman was shot dead after she and her friends accidentally pulled into the wrong driveway in Upstate New York while they were looking for their friend’s house. Kaylin Gillis was in a car with three others on Saturday night when they mistakenly pulled into the wrong driveway on Paterson Hill Road in Hebron, Washington County Sheriff Jeffrey Murphy said during a press conference. It's an easy area to get lost in and they were in the driveway for just a short time, he said.

Gillis was travelling in a car with three friends when they made a wrong turn looking for a friend’s house in Hebron, rural upstate New York, on Saturday night (15 April). A 20-year-old woman was shot and killed by a homeowner in upstate New York on Saturday after the car she was in accidentally went to the wrong address, local authorities said on Monday. Murphy added that Gillis, who lived in Schuylerville, “was an innocent young girl who was out with friends looking for another friend’s house." Kaylin Gillis was in a car with three other people Saturday night in the rural town of Hebron when the group mistakenly turned onto the property of Kevin Monahan, 65. Police locked down a downtown residential building and surrounding streets Thursday night while they investigated a deadly shooting.
