I tried to run back in the store, but he was blocking the door.

Then 1 killed the other, Norfolk police say.<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>Two men robbed a drug dealer of his weed. When they met later to split what they had stolen, one shot the other in the heart, police say.<\/p>\n<p>And so Michael Perry is dead and Raphael Cuffee is charged with second-degree murder in the Oct. 10 shooting. On Tuesday, Cuffee went to court asking to be released on bond as his case goes through the courts. District Judge Robert Rigney refused, saying the charges were too serious.<\/p>\n<p>Around 6 p.m., Norfolk police went to the 3100 block of Chesapeake Blvd. to check out a report of a car crash. When officers got there, they found Perry, 35, in the driver\u2019s seat of a Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital where he died.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutor Katie Beye told the judge that detectives homed in on a description of the car they believed was involved in the shooting: a silver Nissan Altima with a large dent on the left driver\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>Four days later, a sergeant from the homicide unit was working an unrelated case when he spotted a car matching that description. The driver, 28-year-old Cuffee, was detained and taken to the Police Operations Center on East Virginia Beach Boulevard.<\/p>\n<p>During the ensuing interview, Cuffee confessed to shooting Perry, Beye said. He told detectives he and Perry had robbed a Grandy Village drug dealer of his weed, but Cuffee had kept all of it. The two were meeting on Oct. 10 so Cuffee could give Perry his half.<\/p>\n<p>Cuffee and Perry had \u201ca life of crime together,\u201d Beye told the judge.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Cuffee told the detectives, he felt threatened by Perry\u2019s body language and started shooting. After killing Perry, Cuffee fled, eventually giving the 9mm pistol he\u2019d used to a \u201ccrackhead\u201d to get rid of. Still, when police searched his car less than a week later, they found a loaded .45-caliber handgun in his glove box.<\/p>\n<p>Police found no guns in Perry\u2019s Mercedes, Beye said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Source; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/crime\/2-men-robbed-a-drug-dealer-together-then-1-killed-the-other-norfolk-police-say\/ar-BB1ecH9V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MSN<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Florida man accused of murdering wife after telling police she is &#8216;swimming with the fishes&#8217;<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>Boyton Beach Police arrested 66-year-old Roberto Colon for first-degree murder Friday in the death of his wife, Mary Stella Gomez-Mullet, who went missing on Feb. 20.<\/p>\n<p>Officers originally searched Colon&#8217;s property on Feb. 21 after a friend told them that she was on the phone with Gomez-Mullet just days before she went missing and it sounded like someone attacked her, WPEC reports.<\/p>\n<p>As detectives were leaving Colon&#8217;s home that day, he reportedly shouted at them that his wife was &#8220;swimming with the fishes&#8221; and they needed to &#8220;find the body, find the body,&#8221; according to the local news station.<\/p>\n<p>Police found human remains at Colon&#8217;s property Friday.<\/p>\n<p>He is facing one count of first-degree murder and two marijuana charges.<\/p>\n<p>Colon told police that he married Gomez-Mullet just weeks after meeting her in exchange for citizenship and to take care of his mother, according to WPEC.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our heartfelt condolences are with Mary\u2019s family and loved ones,&#8221; Police Chief Michael G.
