Ralph Ray Peyton III, a 29-year-old man from Brooksville, Florida, was killed during a shooting spree on the evening of August 29, 2014. The attack occurred about 8:49 PM when George Mason III opened fire at the home where Ralph and other family members lived. Ralph’s girlfriend Tarasha Yata Townsend and his grandmother Jannie V. Taylor were also killed; his half-brother Gabriel Bo Taylor was seriously wounded but survived.

George Mason III was arrested after the shooting; reports say he was struck by a passing vehicle while fleeing and was taken to the hospital with several broken bones before being charged with multiple counts of murder and attempted murder. At the time of the trial, prosecutors highlighted Mason’s prior convictions for drug offenses, battery on a law enforcement officer, and possession of a firearm by a felon. Ralph was remembered by his family for his love of video games, music, and football.

Does anyone have memories of Ralph or information about the night of August 29, 2014 that could shed more light on what happened?
