SPRING HILL, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a manager who was acting erratically at a gambling business in Florida is charged with killing his nephew, who came to the business to try to calm him down.
The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office said Sunday in a news release that 55-year-old Roger Vazquez began acting erratically and waving a gun around while working at Lucky Fish Games in Spring Hill, Florida Saturday evening.
Another manager called the business’ owner, who called Vazquez’s nephew, 44-year-old Raymond Correa.
