Florida argument over dog sale leads to fatal shooting of toddler, two adults

A toddler and two adults were killed at a Jacksonville, Florida apartment complex late Saturday, during what police believe was a dispute over the private sale of a dog.

Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Assistant Chief J.D. Stronko told reporters that deputies responded to reports of shots fired at an apartment complex just before 10 p.m.

When they arrived, they determined that five victims – four adults and a three-year-old child – traveled to the development "possibly" to conduct a private dog sale, for reasons unknown to the sheriff’s office, Stronko said.
