Love Triangle Ends In Walmart Parking Lot


"IDAHO FALLS, ID - A husband murders his wife's boyfriend at this Walmart parking lot after learning of an affair.

"Keith Matthias was a math teacher at Idaho Falls High School.

"`Dispatch received a call from Jennifer Matthias, that her husband had just killed someone in the parking lot,` said Sgt. Phil Grimes.

"Around 7pm Jennifer was having dinner with her husband. She told him about an ongoing affair with Jack Purcell, but after she left the restaurant, her husband followed her. She called her boyfriend for help, and parked at Walmart.

"Within minutes, her boyfriend arrived, and had a heated argument with her husband. But then, her husband got out of his car, and shot her boyfriend multiple times in the head with a revolving handgun. The husband then got back in his car, circled the truck, got back out, and fired one last bullet into Jack's skull.

"The husband then drove away, but was followed by Eyewitnesses who gave police his location.

"`He refused to stop... So officers performed a pit maneuver,` said Grimes.

"Once stopped by Hawthorne Elementary, Matthias didn't take long to make his final decision.

"`The car stops. Keith gets out of the vehicle with the handgun down to his side. One officer fires a tazer which has no affect. Keith is pacing around puts the gun to his head, and fires, that's all within about 20 seconds,` said Grimes.

"Matthias does not have a previous criminal record in Idaho."
