Marc Allen Shaw, 38, was fatally shot on January 20, 2020, at a Travis County gas station in Austin. Ross met Shaw at the station reportedly to check who was around his children.

The exchange escalated after Ross refused Shaw’s handshake. Shaw raised his hands and said he didn’t want any problems; when Ross tried to punch him Shaw put him in a bear hug. Ross broke free and produced a handgun hidden in his sweatshirt, firing multiple shots. Shaw was pronounced dead at the scene. Ross then returned to his truck, where his son was present.

Ross was arrested and charged with first-degree murder; he later accepted a 15-year plea deal. Shaw’s family and friends mourned his loss and the community followed the case closely. If anyone witnessed the encounter at the gas station or has information about that day, please share what is known.
