A northwestern Montana man shot and killed the host of the Sportsman
Channel show "A Rifleman's Journal" in an apparent jealous rage while
the TV personality was visiting the shooter's wife, police said
Friday.

Wayne Bengston, 41, then beat his wife, took his 2-year-old son to a
relative's house and drove to his home about 25 miles away in West
Glacier, where he killed himself, Whitefish Police Chief Bill Dial
said.


The dead guy is Gregory G. Rodriguez, 43, of Sugar Land, Texas.
Bengston's wife told police that Rodriguez was in town on business and
visiting her at her mother's house in Whitefish when her husband showed
up Thursday night.


Rodriguez and the woman, who works for a firearms manufacturer in the
Flathead Valley, met at a trade show and struck up a casual
relationship that police do not believe was romantic, Dial said.

She and Rodriguez were sitting at the kitchen table, talking over a
glass of wine, when Bengston entered the house and shot Rodriguez,
Dial said.

He then beat his wife on the face and head, most likely with the
pistol, he said. She was treated at a hospital and released.

"I think it was a jealous husband, but this is all conjecture," Dial
said.

After the shooting was reported, Flathead County sheriff's deputies
found Bengston's truck parked in his driveway. Efforts by a police
SWAT team to contact Bengston inside the house were unsuccessful, and
officers found his body with what appeared to be a self-inflicted
gunshot wound to the head, police said.

Besides appearing on TV, Rodriguez was the founder and CEO of Global
Adventure Outfitters. According to the company's website, he was an
editor at Shooting Times Magazine and a contributing editor at
Petersen's Hunting, Guns & Ammo and Dangerous Game.
