In what appears to be a jealous rage, Wayne Bengston, 41, shot and killed the host of the Sportsman Channel show "A Rifleman's Journal,"Gregory G. Rodriguez, 43, upon seeing him visiting his wife at her mother's house in Whitefish, Mont.

"After shooting Rodrigues, Bengston 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, according to Associated Press.

Bengston's wife told police that Rodriguez was in Montana on business, reported Yahoo.

The woman, who worked for a gun manufacturer, said she had met Rodriguez at an industry trade show and had struck up a casual friendship with him, stated Associated Press.

"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, according to Associated Press.

The Daily Mail reports, "Rodriguez enjoyed a successful career as one of hunting's leading experts. He killed his first buck at the age of 14, sparking a life-long love of the sport.

"He was a mortgage banker when he went to Africa for the first time in the mid 1990s...he fell in love with the continent," Daily Mail added.

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, reported ABC News.

His biography on the website says he was married with two young children.

A woman who answered the phone at Global Adventure Outfitters confirmed to Associated Press that Rodriguez had been in Montana but said the organization would not be making a statement at the time.
