A jury in Washington state convicted a man who shot a person to death because he thought they had stolen his mail.

Chad Wilson, 41, was found guilty of first-degree manslaughter, murder with extreme indifference and drive-by shooting, the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release. Deputies say Wilson spotted 31-year-old Richard Taii and two other women in a car outside his home in Port Richard, near Seattle, on Jan. 10, 2023, and thought they were stealing his mail. Wilson went to confront the trio and subsequently shot Taii dead.
