So then the suspect called the man to meet up with him on a lonely road, and he shot him to death on the road before leaving the scene.

So the loan shark had no money and owed money, not very good at his trade

One of us is reading the article wrong. If I am not mistaken, it was the shooter that had no money.

I think you still have this wrong. Why would the shooter kill someone who owed him money?
You know that victim refers to the dead guy, right?
