MAYS LANDING, N.J. (AP) — A man accused of fatally shooting a store manager before turning the gun on himself at an Atlantic City outlet mall last year has been convicted of murder charges.

Luis Maisonet also was found guilty of aggravated assault and three weapons offenses stemming from the September 2016 shooting at a skatewear shop in The Walk. An Atlantic County jury returned its verdict Friday.
