San Bernardino resident David Weed, 26, faces life in prison without the possibility of parole after being convicted of first-degree murder while committing a robbery, Ontario police said in a news release.

Weed killed 34-year-old Ontario resident Shawn Nix on Christmas Day, 2006. Ontario police discovered Nix’s body inside his apartment in the 1700 block of East D Street in what appeared to be a robbery.

Two other men are awaiting trial for their involvement in the murder and robbery, according to the San Bernardino district attorney’s office.

Police believe the men robbed a Radio Shack, Auto Zone and several other businesses.
