The suspect in a deadly Christmas Eve shooting in Oxford Township has a history of gun crimes and was recently released from prison despite picking up another weapons conviction while behind bars, the Free Press has found.

Records indicate that the man who authorities say opened fire on Christmas Eve, killing one and injuring two, was just discharged from prison in July.

It's unclear if drugs or alcohol were a factor, but Bouchard added he believed the shooting to be premeditated because the suspect discharged more than 30 rounds from an extended magazine.
