NEW DELHI (AP) — Bollywood star Salman Khan was acquitted of shooting and killing three endangered animals nearly two decades ago in a verdict Monday that overturned a lower court's ruling that would have sent the popular leading man to jail. Khan and seven other people, including Bollywood actors, were accused of killing a gazelle and two antelopes over two days in 1998 while filming a movie in Rajasthan state. The judges found that prosecutors had failed to prove charges of culpable homicide, in which they accused Khan of driving while intoxicated in 2002 and running over five men sleeping on a sidewalk in Mumbai, killing one of them.
