Description
Defendant assigns error in the denial of his motion for judgment of nonsuit urged chiefly on the ground that the States evidence was characterized and given significance by the defendants exculpatory statement, as testified by the States witness, that the fatal wound was the result of an accident. While this statement was material and competent to be considered on the motion to nonsuit, it may not be regarded as conclusive if there be other evidence tending to throw a different light on the circumstances of the homicide. The State was not bound by that statement if other evidence offered pointed to a different conclusion and raised the reasonable inference from all the testimony that the shooting of the deceased was intentional and unlawful. S. v. Baker, 222 N.C. 428, 23 S.E.2d 340; {PA}
