A family dispute in a Lancaster home ended in fatal gunfire on September 28, 2019. Tony Sheril Gladden, 47, was in the living room of the Franandel Drive residence he shared with his mother when witnesses heard shots while he and his half-brother, Manly Maurice Thompson, 43, were alone in the room. Deputies arrived about 3 p.m. and found Gladden on the living room floor with what appeared to be multiple gunshot wounds. He was treated at the scene, airlifted first to MUSC Lancaster’s helipad and then to Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, where he later died.

Investigators focused on Thompson as the primary suspect. He was seen leaving the home on foot after the gunfire, later returned, and was taken into custody without incident. Thompson was arrested and charged with murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime and held at the Lancaster County Detention Center pending a bond hearing.

Are there details about the dispute or timeline at the home that anyone in Lancaster can add?
