Florida shooting spree kills 4-month-old baby, toddler, their mother and grandmother across two scenes 05.05.2026

A shooting spree in Plant City, Florida, killed four family members across two scenes early Sunday morning, representing three generations: a 4-month-old baby, a 4-year-old child, their 28-year-old mother, and their 55-year-old grandmother. A third child was unharmed. Police first responded to a residential street between 5:30 a.m. and 7 a.m., finding the children dead at the scene and the mother, who later died in a hospital. The violence was linked to a second location less than a mile away where the grandmother was found dead. Authorities believe individuals traveled on foot between the scenes. No suspect or motive has been confirmed, but neighbors reported a disagreement on Friday that prompted a police call and suspicious behavior the night before, including a man with a bulletproof vest. The investigation remains ongoing, with police urging residents to review surveillance footage.
