The interaction between Hurley and the clerk, who was not identified, escalated when the clerk attempted to verify the man was the owner of the photographs.
The clerk backed away and attempted to call 911 as Hurley allegedly retreated with the photographs. Hurley was allegedly threatening to kill the clerk around that time, and then allegedly returned to the counter in an effort to cross over it again.
"The clerk then pulled his own gun and shot the deceased multiple times," Watkins said.
No arrests had been made Wednesday in connection to the triple shooting.
