TAUNTON, Mass. (AP) -- A Taunton man is headed to court to face charges that he killed a gas station clerk last weekend.

Authorities say 37-year-old Steven Foster is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday on a murder charge in Taunton District Court.

Foster was arrested on Monday after questioning by police and charged with the fatal shooting of 45-year-old Hegazy Sayed inside the Planet Petroleum store at about 10 p.m. on Sunday. Police say Foster was trying to rob the store. Sayed's body was discovered by a customer, who called police.

Foster is also charged with armed robbery, possession of a stolen firearm and witness intimidation. The investigation is continuing.

I saw the interview of the victim's wife. Very sad. They should throw the book at this piece of turd... One more reason to bring back the death penalty... We don't need to house this scum for the rest of his useless life.
