A Georgia man was killed at an indoor gun range — when a member of his party inadvertently fired at him over Memorial Day weekend, officials said.

John Salvati, 59, was accidentally struck Monday at Quickshot Savannah and rushed to Memorial Medical Center, according to the Savannah Police Department.

He later died from his injuries, authorities said.

Photos on the married father’s Facebook page show him visiting the beach and celebrating birthdays with friends and family.

Relatives mourned Salvati’s death Tuesday by paying tribute on social media.

“To say I am devastated and as is the rest of my family is not even close,” Salvati’s nephew, Frankie DeFeo, wrote on Facebook.

Police said they’re investigating the shooting, but charges will likely not be filed, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
