Man Guilty of Killing Tower

In Oregon, Matthew Alexander McAdoo, 44, was found guilty of 2nd degree murder after he aggressively confronted tow truck driver Patrick Sanford, 51, for towing his car at his apartments the morning of June 17, 2021.  

Sanford, the owner of Titan Towing, released McAdoo’s car but a little more than 30 minutes later, McAdoo confronted Sanford a second time, now holding a gun. 

The D.A.’s Office said Sanford, afraid for his safety, pepper-sprayed McAdoo who responded by shooting Sanford three times. Sanford was pronounced dead at the scene. 

During his trial, McAdoo claimed he was acting in self-defense. 

Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 5.
