Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot and wounded a companion 
during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas.

Fellow hunter and attorney Harry Whittington, 78, was sprayed in the 
face and chest with shotgun pellets as Cheney tried to shoot a bird on 
Saturday.

The owner of the property where the shooting took place, Katharine 
Armstrong, said Whittington is "alert and doing fine" in a Corpus 
Christi hospital. A hospital spokeswoman said Whittington is in stable 
condition.

Cheney's spokeswoman said the vice president has been with Whittington 
and his wife at the hospital.

The shooting was first reported by the Corpus Christi Caller-Times. 
The vice president's office did not disclose the accident until nearly 
24 hours after it happened.

Cheney is an avid hunter who makes annual hunting trips to South 
Dakota to hunt pheasants. He also travels frequently to Arkansas to 
hunt ducks.
