Shooting: Turner Get Bronze
U.S. shooter Jason Turner was awarded a bronze medal in the 10-meter air pistol after Kim Jong Su from North Korea was disqualified for a positive drug test.
Turner was fourth in the competition before Kim's doping positive.
From Saginaw, Mich., Turner lives and trains at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. A 2004 Olympian, he will receive his medal in a ceremony hosted by the U.S. Olympic Committee at a date and time to be determined.
