The charges stem from the shooting death of 25-year-old Dontarious Sylvester inside Sole Stop on June 12.
According to court records, surveillance video showed the men were arguing in the store.
Records state that Sylvester hit Gray with a handbag, Gray then pulled out a gun and fired multiple times at Sylvester before walking out of the store and calling 911.
In an over 8-minute 911 call Gray told dispatchers “a man assaulted me with his purse and I shot. I shot him.”, according to WBNS.
Gray is currently in custody at the Franklin County Jail.
