UPDATE: One Dead, Children and Others Wounded in Sanford Shooting

UPDATE: 3/27/2017 at 11:56 a.m.

Police in central Florida say a woman and her boyfriend were arguing over property before he fatally shot her and also shot five others, including her two grade-school age sons. 

Sanford Police say the woman and the gunman were arguing over property at a gas station Monday morning, and the woman approached a police officer about it.

The officer settled them down, but sometime later, was called to the home where the argument had flared up again. Again, the argument died down and the officer left.

A short time later, the gunman fatally shot the woman and also shot her two sons and their grandfather.

The gunman then went to a nearby street and shot two bystanders, including a high school student waiting for a bus.
