An 8-year-old boy, Branden Christian of Sanford, Florida, was fatally shot on March 27, 2017, during a domestic dispute at his home. The altercation involved his mother, Latina Herring, and her ex-boyfriend, Allen Cashe. Cashe returned to the residence in the early hours and opened fire with an AK-47, firing about 24 rounds into the home.

The shooting killed Branden and his mother and wounded Branden’s younger brother, Brendon, and their grandfather, Bertis Gerard Herring, along with two bystanders who were hit in the crossfire. Police records show repeated prior calls between Herring and Cashe, including disputes earlier that day at a convenience store and later at the home, before the attack escalated.

Charges have been filed against Allen Cashe, including counts connected to the deaths and to the injured victims. Does anyone have information about the events leading up to that morning or about Branden and his family?
