Daniel Perry, a 37-year-old Uber driver and Army sergeant, was driving through downtown Austin, Texas on the night of July 25, 2020

He ended up in the middle of a Black Lives Matter march and had an altercation with protester Garrett Foster, 28, who was carrying an AK-47

Perry shot Foster dead: Perry claimed it was self defense, but on Friday a jury found him guilty of murdering Foster

The jury deliberated 17 hours over two days to reach its decision, after an eight-day trial. He sobbed when the guilty verdict was read out, and hugged his attorney. Perry faces up to life in prison.
