As a group of children steps onto his lawn, Ernie runs outside firing his rifle well over their heads. The children flee screaming.

The most serious offense, if any, Ernie has committed is: A) capital murder because he caused the death of a child under 10 years old. B) manslaughter because he caused a death through reckless use of a deadly weapon. C) no offense because Ernie lacked the intent to physically harm any of the children.
