Antonio Mason, 35, was killed on July 27, 2016, in Gainesville, Florida. He was at a family gathering at his in-laws’ home when two masked men entered and opened fire. Antonio was holding his infant daughter, Zy’Mya, at the time; both were struck. Antonio died of his injuries, and Zy’Mya survived with a gunshot wound to her arm.

Investigators say the attack involved five people and was carried out because the suspects believed, mistakenly, that a large sum of money had been stolen from one of them, Rodney Sheffield. Charges filed included first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder. Jacoby Sheffield, Daryl Wilkerson, and Jamal Thompson were arrested soon after the shooting; Rodney Sheffield and David Lock were later arrested as well.

Antonio is remembered by his family as a passionate basketball player, a devoted father, and a beloved friend. Does anyone have information about the night of July 27, 2016, or knew Antonio and his family?
