Prosecutors say they intend to seek a life sentence for an Evansville man charged with murder and other crimes in the fatal shooting of another man this summer. Defendant Samuel Renner is charged with killing 41-year-old Todd Callies outside Taylor's Sports Bar in July. Renner has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is being held without bond at the Natrona County Detention Center. Prosecutor Dan Itzen says the case would not qualify for the death penalty. Prosecutors have said Renner got in a fight outside the bar and returned with a gun later that night. Authorities say Renner was threatening patrons with the gun and say Callies was shot as he tried to tackle Renner.
