A 57-year-old man turned himself in to police on Friday nearly a week after he allegedly shot and killed an attorney during an altercation at a McDonald's in Houston.
Anthony Martin Landry was charged with murdering Jeffrey Limmer, 46, on May 4, the Houston Police Department said in a news release. He is currently in custody at the Harris County Jail, police said.
Houston police found Limmer "unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds" and paramedics pronounced he died soon after, according to the department.
Police said Landry fled the scene in an early 2000s blue Ford pickup truck after shooting Limmer multiple times.
Anthony Landry was angry about McDonald's order
The shooting stemmed from a "verbal disagreement" between Landry and Limmer, according to police. Issues arose when Landry demanded a refund after becoming angry with the McDonald's staff regarding his order, ABC 13 reported, citing detectives.
Limmer, an associate in Lewis Brisbois' Houston office, stepped in to de-escalate the conflict but his attempt to help prompted Landry to focus on him, according to the TV station.
The two men fought, and at some point, Limmer pushed Landry to the ground, ABC 13 said. Landry then grabbed a gun from his vehicle and shot Limmer.
Landry was officially charged with Limmer's murder on May 8, police said.
