Man guilty of shooting dead in a fit of fury on the road

A man from North Carolina who was charged with shooting a man out of rage on the road has been found guilty.

LaShawn Hughes was found guilty by a jury of murder, possessing guns while disabled, and tampering with evidence, according to court documents.

A man was reported missing in a parking lot in the 1600 block of Ferguson Court to Sidney dispatchers in August 2023.

The Sidney Police Department says that when they got there, they found 32-year-old Tyler Welsh dead from a gunshot wound.

Hughes was caught after his semi-truck drove away from the scene of the crime.

Police said they think the two men got into a fight because they were angry about something on the road.

Hughes will get his sentence on October 25.
