Edward Pyeatt, 61, was shot in Roswell, New Mexico, on the evening of May 23, 2016. Officers called to the scene found Pyeatt with a gunshot wound; he was transported to a nearby hospital but died of his injuries, and the incident was investigated as a homicide.

Investigators soon identified a person of interest and arrested Branden Berg, described as Pyeatt’s nephew. Berg was charged with an open count of murder; police later named Pyeatt as the victim and Berg as the suspect in the fatal shooting.

What details about the confrontation or events earlier that evening might help explain how this family dispute ended in deadly violence?
