Stolen Console and Games Lead to Homicide

By pete_gallagher

A dispute over a stolen console and games led to a shooting in an Anchorage, Alaska mall last month.

Police have obtained a warrant for 28-year old Terence Clyde Gray (pictured), who is alleged to have shot 29-year old Edwing Matos at the Dimond Center on February 27.  Fairbanks Daily reports that Matos had items stolen from his home a few days prior to the shooting and had arranged to meet Gray in the mall in order to settle the dispute.

Gray allegedly showed up at the meet wearing a wig and fake mustache, which witnesses said looked like a 'Halloween costume,' and armed with a .40-caliber pistol. Following a short discussion between the two on a bench, which was captured on surveillance video, Gray reportedly shot Matos twice at point blank range. Matos, wounded in the head and body, later died at the hospital.
