What is the story about the guy he shot having a shotgun in the car?
TV said that the shooter maintains that was the case, but I did not
hear if that was ever introduced as evidence. Not making excuses
for the guy, just looking for the facts.

Unclear.

What is clear however is that the police botched the investigation by
not searching the area immediately, leaving it entirely a "reasonable
doubt" as to weather such a shotgun did exist and those in the car
disposed of it in the time they were away from the gas station.

As to the shotgun -- testimony from his girlfriend revealed that
he Dunn never mentioned another weapon being involved.

He drove off to his motel, ordered a pizza, and slept off the numerous
drinks he had earlier that evening at a wedding reception.

How talkative are you when you've just had a traumatic experience and
are also still a bit drunk?
