FLINT, MI -- A Flint man was ordered to spend more than 50 years in prison after he shot a man to death outside of a gas station in 2011 during a dispute over an Xbox console.

Genesee Circuit Judge Judith A. Fullerton sentenced Antonio Demond Watkins on Tuesday, April 15, to 50-75 years in prison after jurors found him guilty of second-degree murder for the Aug. 30, 2011, killing of 27-year-old Sunta Newman. He was also ordered to serve a consecutive two-year sentence for felony firearm.

Testimony during the trial showed Newman's death stemmed from an argument between Newman and Watkins over an Xbox console that Newman had sold to Watkins.

A witness, who was at the gas station on Saginaw Street near Leith Street when the killing took place, testified that Newman started back toward his car when Watkins pulled out a gun. The witness testified that he ducked and heard four gunshots.

When the gunfire ended, the witness testified that Watkins was gone and Newman was on the ground dying from a gunshot wound to the head.

Newman was pronounced dead at Hurley Medical Center hours later.

Watkins was charged with the killing in September 2011 but was not apprehended by authorities until February 2013.

Watkins was arrested in the woods of St. Helena Island, S.C., after he fled from a residence when he saw police coming, Amanda Lyons, public information officer for the U.S. Marshal's Office, previously said.

Lyons said authorities received information about Watkins' whereabouts and he was apprehended after officers showed pictures and conducted interviews with people in the area. Lyons said Watkins had no known ties to St. Helena Island.

Watkins was previously convicted of breaking and entering a building with intent, possession of marijuana and possession of less than 25 grams of a controlled substance.

Fullerton also ordered that he serve concurrent four year to seven year, six month prison terms for carrying a concealed weapon and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
