A second robber began shooting, and the store owner returned fire. Both the store owner and one of the felons were fatally shot. D and the two remaining felons were charged with both deaths as well as other crimes. D was found guilty and given concurrent life terms. D appealed, and review was granted on the issue of the death of the co-felon.
