Man admits shooting driver in head

A 26-year-old man who was shot in the head early Saturday has been identified as Shane Reilly.

Reilly is at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center. Court documents filed today say he is on life support and is not expected to survive.

Suspect Robert Dean Startin, 27, remains in jail on $750,000 bond after appearing in Superior Court today on a first-degree assault charge.

According to court documents, Startin told detectives he was walking home from the Ironhorse Saloon when he joined Reilly - whom he referred to as “the big guy” - and three others as they drank around a fire at 615 S. Woodruff.
