Gray was arrested two days later in New Mexico following what police say was a road-rage incident that left him injured.

Gray's attorney said he was guilty of the car theft charges, but not of murder.

The jury recommended a sentence of life without parole for the first-degree murder charge. Gray is scheduled to be sentenced April 12.
