Hall, Justice,
dissenting.
In my opinion, the trial court was in error in refusing appellant’s written request to charge on the lesser included offense of involuntary manslaughter as set out in Code Ann. § 26-1103. See Kerbo v. State, 230 Ga. 241 (196 SE2d 424) (1973). Robertson v. State, 140 Ga. App. 506 (231 SE2d 367) (1976), is inapposite for the reason that the defendant there admitted to a deliberate discharge of the firearm.
