A Bridgeport man was sentenced to 50 years in prison for the 2019 Stamford murder of Stephon Walthrust.
Rashad Sellers, 31, shot Walthrust to death over an unpaid debt. Prosecutors say Walthrust, 26, went from Queens to Stamford to collect money Sellers owed him.
Surveillance video showed Sellers park one block away from the shooting before walking in that direction.
Sellers was found guilty by a jury in July.
