SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — Police say an 8-year-old Florida boy has died following a shooting that also took his mother's life and wounded four others.
Sanford police said in a statement that Branden Christian died Tuesday.
Allen Cashe is accused of fatally shooting Branden and his mother, Latina Herring, Monday morning. His 7-year-old brother and his grandfather also were shot in a home in Sanford, a suburb north of the city of Orlando, Florida. Cashe also is charged with shooting two bystanders outside the home, including a high school student who was waiting for a bus.
An officer who heard those shots located Cashe, subdued him and arrested him.
