BOAZ, Ala. (AP) - A north Alabama man is accused of killing his former brother-in-law during a confrontation at a credit union office, police said.

Jossie Cheyenne Bowen, 26, of Boaz is charged with murder in the slaying of Colton Craig McKinney, 30, of Crossville, according to a statement from Boaz police.

Bowen and his sister went to Family Security Credit Union on Tuesday to confront McKinney over a joint account he had with the woman, the statement said, and a dispute ended in gunfire that killed McKinney.
