Portland businessman Geoffrey E. Hammond killed Ryan Martin during a road-rage battle before shooting Samuel Gomez, a bystander filming the unsettling scene.

The unbelievable encounter unfurled in the city’s downtown area when Hammond — who owns the financial company Aequantium — stopped his Mercedes Benz SUV in front of the Moxy Hotel on Southwest Alder so that it was partially blocking traffic. As Hammond continued fiddling with the weapon, Phoenix resident Gomez walked outside of the Moxy Hotel, where he’d been attending a conference of the National Organization of Minority Architects as a presenter and stumbled upon Martin’s final moments.The bullet passed through one of Gomez’s legs and then broke the femur in his other.Despite fleeing the scene of the crime, Hammond called 911 as he drove himself to the county courthouse, admitting to dispatch that he shot the two men.
“He believed he was justified in doing so because Ryan Martin menaced him and because Sam Gomez might have had a weapon,” the affidavit states, adding that he thought Gomez “may have been planning an ambush which he recognized as a military tactic.”Martin tried to plead with Hammond for his life — telling him, “I’m sorry. I had a bad day” — but the gunman allegedly tried to take a second shot at the dying man. The gun jammed, police said.
