A 36-year-old man, Charles Richards, is facing deadly charges after police say he fatally shot a man outside a smoke shop in Albuquerque over a debt. Surveillance footage shows Richards and others forcing the victim out, then chasing him into the street before firing. The video also captured Richards with a gun, and audio hints at the debt motive.
