Jurors convicted a dope-dealing teenager who randomly targeted a man in northeast Minneapolis for robbery and ended up killing his victim execution-style.

Montrell M. Webster, 19, of Brooklyn Park, was found guilty in Hennepin County District Court last week of first-degree murder in the death of Eulalio Gonzalez-Sanchez, 36, on the morning of Sept. 21, 2014.

Webster, who was 17 at the time of the killing, was immediately sentenced to life in prison by Judge Elizabeth Cutter. He can possibly be paroled after 30 years.

Gonzalez-Sanchez headed home on the bus from his girlfriend's house and texted her at 6:24 a.m. to say he was almost there. One minute later and a block from his destination, Gonzalez-Sanchez was shot dead in the 2200 block of 7th Street NE., the criminal complaint read.

According to the complaint and testimony during the three-week trial:

When police found Gonzalez-Sanchez's body in a parking lot, an empty cellphone case was at the scene — the cellphone gone. His wallet also was left behind, but only after it had been rifled through.

About three months later, Jeremiah E. Blackwell, 21 at the time, was arrested and charged in the shooting. Police obtained video from a Wal-Mart store showing Blackwell, his father and brother, and Webster buying ammunition used in the gun that later killed Gonzalez-Sanchez.

In March 2015, Webster admitted to being with Blackwell on the morning of the robbery. The two were in Blackwell's car selling marijuana when they spotted Gonzalez-Sanchez walking down the street, prompting the two to plot robbery.

At Blackwell's direction, Webster got out of the car with a handgun and ordered Gonzalez-Sanchez to the ground. Webster grabbed the victim's wallet and went through it. His cellphone was missing.

And while Gonzalez-Sanchez remained on the ground, Webster shot him three times.

Blackwell pleaded guilty to aiding an offender on Feb. 19 and is scheduled to be sentenced April 7.
