Need help with the meaning of a word: "убийства"

Question

I started studying russian this year, I am able to read russian already but still have next to no vocabulary.

Either way, the other day I was playing Borderlands 2, and when I zoomed in with a sniper, I noticed there was a russian word on the scope, which was something like: убийства

I'm sure about the "убий" part, while the rest not entirely, but somthing like that, which is "ства"... there is a chance that there was a "ц" on the middle though...

I'm sorry if it is a vague question, but I tried searching for it but haven't found anything that I could use.

http://ru.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D1%83%D0%B1%D0%B8%D0%B9%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%BE, there you can see that your word is the plural form of убийство — c.p., Oct 15 '12 at 19:53
As a note for the next time, check out our Resources post, it contains an online dictionary that finds different morphological forms of the same word. — Olga, Oct 15 '12 at 21:02
