A 31-year-old Overbrook man with a history of drug arrests was charged Thursday with killing a beloved 81-year-old South Philadelphia grocer inside her store on Christmas Eve, and police said it was over a piece of jewelry. Maurice Green shot Marie Buck 11 times from the doorway of her store, Marie's Grocery, just before 9 a.m. Dec. 24, Homicide Capt. James Clark said at a news conference Thursday.
"He just went and opened up the door," Clark said. "He never even fully was one step inside the store and he fired multiple times, striking her 11 times."
Green had intended to shoot Buck's grandson, who was supposed to be working in the store at Sixth and Titan Streets that day, Clark said. But when her grandson didn't show up for work, Buck went to run the store instead.

If he was a drug dealer he would be considered a non-violent offender by Obama.
good grief!
Police say they have video of Green parking and walking towards the store minutes before the murder, along with video of him fleeing the scene right after the shooting.
You're who?
bang.
F'er reached for my gun chief .. I HAD to.
Maurice Green is not.
Totally amoral thug. He had apparently intended to kill her grandson, who was also a drug dealer, and when he found that the grandson wasn’t working there that day, he just killed the grandmother.
He needs to be put down.
So he took the grandmother because his drug trade buddy that allegedly stole his necklace was absent. Hoodrat pieces of shi*t like this Green guy don’t think twice about targeting family if they can’t find you, even if it means blasting your 8 year old while she’s playing on a playground.
The perp had 15 priors.
We made a critical error when we abolished the public hanging.
Maybe Obama will give him a pardon?
Black on white hate crime.
In a Philly jail, he’ll be treated like a hero.
31 ? More like 51.
He was mad that Trump won. That will be his defense. It’s Philadelphia you know.
Another feral animal. Another innocent murder victim.
Thank you Democrats, Obama, Hillary, Pelosi, Reid. And the undertakers and grave-diggers also thank you for full employment.
Rot in hell you bastards.
#12 re “Black on white hate crime”.
Hey, he can be another “MUMIA”. I didn’t do it but you did find the murder weapon in my hand and gunpowder resident on my hand. Now how did that happen? Did the real perp put it in my hand while I was reading the New York Times?
I’m innocent because I’m black and Obama/Holder/Lynch said so.
Should have been shot in the head on the spot then 10more for justice abd carcass left in dumpster.Do that and see the difference.
Cuz I act like the pompatus of thug ...
I knew a grandkid would be involved somehow. I knew it. I bet that grandkid knew darn good and well this guy was coming, too, (because this guy knew grandkid was supposed to work that day, so they were clearly in contact) and let his grandma go into harm's way.
damn right.
