Troy Williams, 24, walked into the BG Mart, 2248 West Bank Expressway, shortly before 9:30 p.m. and began arguing with another customer at the counter, said Col. Robert Garner, sheriff's spokesman.

The man followed Williams outside to the gas pump and shot him once with a handgun, then got into a Nissan Quest and fled southbound on Scottsdale Drive, the spokesman said. (DOA) (6/6/04)

Shortly before 5 p.m., two officers saw Tehopile and a group of other people standing at Ursulines Avenue and North Rocheblave Street, police spokeswoman Jonette Williams said. As the officers got out of their car to question the people, Tehopile ran, Williams said.

One officer chased Tehopile into an alley between two houses, where Tehopile turned and began pulling a gun out of his waistband, Williams said. The officer fired one shot and missed. The chase continued and Tehopile was caught by the officer behind one of the houses, Williams said.

The officers recovered a loaded .40-caliber gun dropped by Tehopile, who was carrying small amounts of crack cocaine and heroin, police said. (6/6/04)
