SANTA CRUZ COUNTY, Ariz. — Jurors got a first hand look at George Alan Kelly’s assault rifle as his murder trial continues. The Santa Cruz County rancher is charged with second degree murder in the shooting death of a Mexican National crossing his land.

Up to this point jurors had only seen photos of the AK-47 assault rifle Kelly carried as he patrolled his ranch. Prosecutors say he fired this gun in the direction of two border crossers, and hit and killed Gabriel Cuen Buitimea.The bullet had enough power to hit the victim in the back, go out the front of his chest and be lost in the landscape.
