Christopher Lamar Pratt Sr., 24, was shot and killed in Buffalo, New York, on December 1, 2014. Pratt was walking on Rother Avenue when he was confronted by a man identified as 32-year-old Antone Herrod.

Herrod reportedly retrieved a long gun from his vehicle and shot Pratt in the back, killing him. Buffalo Police identified Herrod as the suspect and arrested him on a charge of second-degree murder. At trial in Erie County Court, Herrod said he acted in self-defense, claiming he thought Pratt was reaching for a weapon in Pratt’s car; no firearm was found in the vehicle. After jury deliberations, Herrod was convicted of murder in the second degree and sentenced to a maximum of 25 years to life.

Does anyone have additional details about Pratt’s life or the 2012 shooting that led to this confrontation?
