MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- A Morgantown man has been convicted of second-degree murder in the bow-and-arrow death of a friend.

Media outlets report that a Monongalia County Circuit Court jury deliberated for two-and-a-half hours Monday before issuing its verdict in the trial of 20-year-old Andrew McIntyre.

McIntyre had been charged with first-degree murder.

Prosecutors said McIntyre shot 19-year-old Marcus Toothman with an arrow from a compound bow following an argument.

McIntyre faces 10 to 40 years in prison. A sentencing date hasn't been set.
