A Hazelwood man was sentenced Monday to five years in prison in connection with a deadly shooting in 2016 that police say stemmed from an argument over dirty dishes.

Police say Samuel Horine, 30, shot his roommate after a fight about who would do the dishes.

Horine plead guilty in July to involuntary manslaughter and armed criminal action in the shooting death of Keith Coffey.

Court records show Horine and his roommate Coffet were playing with guns when they jokingly started fighting about who would complete the chore.
