A stepfather was accused of killing his adult stepson in Davenport on Wednesday.
The Davenport Police Department was called to a home on Citrus Landing Boulevard at 7:10 p.m. for a reported domestic incident and shooting.
Police said KAG, 43, and his wife AD, 48, were in their home with D’s adult son, AM, 26, and two children ages 9 and 11, at the time of the shooting. The incident began when D learned the 9-year-old boy was playing the video game Fortnite, which was forbidden, and decided to discipline him by taking his cellphone away.
The boy became upset and grabbed a handgun from a nightstand drawer in D’s bedroom. G and D struggled with the 9-year-old over the gun, and it ultimately ended up in G’s hands.
M entered the room to find the “agitated” child and G holding the gun. The two men got into an argument that resulted in G shooting his stepson several times in the chest and abdomen, Davenport police said.
G pursued M as he left the bedroom and shot him twice more in the back, according to police. M was taken to the hospital, where he died.
G was charged with second-degree murder and unlawful storage of a firearm (accessible to a minor). He was booked into the Polk County Jail, where he remained Thursday.
