A North Attleboro man on Wednesday was charged with murdering a man in Boston in January 2014.

Csean Skerritt, 26, allegedly shot Julien Printemps to death at a Tedeschi’s convenience store on Dorchester Avenue. At the time, Skerritt had just finished serving a 3-year prison sentence for a gun conviction.

Skerritt was ordered held without bail Wednesday in Suffolk County Superior Court.

Prosecutors said on the night of the murder, Printemps was getting into his car in a parking lot when Skerritt’s vehicle pulled into a nearby parking space. Skerritt emerged from the driver’s side of the vehicle and stood with the door open. The two men, who were each affiliated with rival groups, exchanged words.

Prosecturos said Skerritt pulled out a semiautomatic handgun and opened fire on Printemps’ vehicle. Printemps entered the car and attempted to drive away. Skerritt then ran after the vehicle and fired on Printemps, striking him multiple times. Printemps’ vehicle crashed and came to a rest on the curb. He exited the vehicle and collapsed in the parking lot, mortally wounded, prosecutors said.

Skerritt is due back in court May 28.
