Jury Convicts Man Charged In 2015 Fatal Shooting

DENVER (AP) — A jury has convicted the last of three suspects charged in the shooting death of a 61-year-old man in his northwest Denver home.

Prosecutors announced Monday that 29-year-old Derek Webb was convicted last week of murder, burglary and aggravated robbery stemming from the May 2015 death of Samuel Grady. Webb is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 16.

Investigators say he and two other men went to Grady's home, where they shot him before stealing his wallet and truck.

The Denver Post reports 39-year-old Chad Baluska pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and is set to be sentenced Jan. 6. Eric Fuhs, Grady's 26-year-old nephew, was found guilty of first-degree murder, burglary and aggravated robbery and was sentenced last month to life in prison without parole.

Baluska was arrested after the slaying while driving Grady's stolen truck.
