Police were initially called about a robbery in progress, but it turns out it was a domestic dispute between a father and son. Son lives at the location, and the father had been staying here for about a month. Police said they got into an argument that escalated with son grabbing a gun and allegedly shooting his father. Officers said the son shot his father somewhere between four to six times. When asked what that argument was over, officers could only say some sort of “family matter.” source
Police said there were multiple people inside at the time of the shooting, including children, and there are multiple witnesses.
