- Share via
The family of a Red Sox fan killed outside Fenway Park after a police officer accidentally fired a pepper-spray pellet into her eye has filed a $10-million suit against the gun maker.
The lawsuit by the family of Emerson College student Victoria Snelgrove, 21, charges that FN Herstal USA falsely claimed its pellets didn’t break the skin.
Snelgrove was killed Oct. 21 in a crowd that gathered outside Fenway Park to celebrate Boston’s pennant-clinching win over the New York Yankees.
On Monday, Suffolk Dist. Atty. Daniel Conley determined that no criminal charges would be filed against the police officers involved in the shooting.
