DETROIT (FOX 2) - A Detroit man who shot and killed another man over a card game in 2021 was found guilty of murder Friday.
Authorities said Lashawn Wells, 46, shot 41-year-old Marquell Scholar, of Sterling Heights, nine times during an argument while playing a card game in March 2021.
Wells will be sentenced Oct. 25.
"That a game of cards should result in murder is a tragedy, and I am grateful to see the jury bring accountability to this senseless crime," said Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.
