FORT EDWARD, N.Y.—The boyfriend of a 20-year-old woman fatally shot in the neck when they pulled into the wrong driveway last year described to a jury Thursday hearing a shot pierce the car and then seeing his girlfriend slumped over in the passenger seat.

“Frantic in the car ... people were screaming,” Blake Walsh said, describing the moments leading up to the death of Kaylin Gillis.
