Akron man charged with accidentally shooting woman in van

An Akron man is accused of accidently shooting and killing a woman as they sat in a van.

Andre I. Wilson, 29, is being held in the Wayne County Jail in lieu of a $100,000 bond. He was charged with reckless homicide on Tuesday by Wooster police in connection with the death of Elisesha S. Mathis, 29.

Police said Wilson and Mathis were inside a van parked on North Buckeye Street in Wooster when the woman was struck in the chest by gunfire. Mathis died the following day.

Wilson is scheduled to appear Monday for a preliminary hearing in Wooster Municipal Court. Online records do not show an attorney representing Wilson.
