A Mountain Home man has been charged with first-degree murder after allegedly shooting a hotel employee over a noise complaint.
Police say Gary Frans, heavily intoxicated at the time, shot the Mountain Home Inn front desk worker on March 16 after complaining about loud music from a cleaning crew. Witnesses say the victim told Frans, “Don’t shoot me,” three times before he fired.
