OPINION
TOM GRAY, Justice.
Tijuan Canady was charged with capital murder. The jury found him guilty of the lesser included offense of murder and assessed punishment at life in prison. We affirm.
BACKGROUND
Canady rented a house from Christine Gibson and her husband. While her husband was away, Canady came to Gibson’s home to discuss a fight bill. An argument began between Canady and Mrs. Gibson. Canady ultimately shot Mrs. Gibson several times with her own weapon and fled the scene out a back window. He threw the gun in a neighbor’s stock tank where it was later recovered.
