Tra Vontay Constantine News

A 17-year-old is accused of shooting his parents, leaving his father dead and his mother seriously injured.

Tra Vontay Constantine was charged with murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for the shooting that happened on Wednesday on Waller Street in the Deer Pines subdivision in Cut and Shoot, near Conroe

He faced a judge Thursday where we learned home surveillance video captured the entire incident. Prosecutors said Tra Vontay pointed a gun at his father, Leroy Constantine Jr., 41, and fired a shot. Prosecutors said the same bullet passed through him and hit his wife in the neck.

Investigators said Tra Vontay got into an argument with his parents because his father found his gun and took the ammunition. Prosecutors said Tra Vontay knew he had one bullet in his car so he got it, loaded his gun and shot at his father.

When first responders arrived on scene, they tried to save Leroy’s life, but he died. As for his wife, she was taken to a hospital where she is expected to survive.

“I think my heart goes out to the mother more than anyone,” a neighbor said. “Just trying to deal with, you never think about needing to forgive your child or something like that. What might’ve been going through his mind at the moment also.”

Neighbors said the family seemed to be close and it’s heartbreaking knowing what happened.

“It’s really hard,” a neighbor told us. “I can’t imagine what they are going through.”

Prosecutors said Tra Vontay had previously been on juvenile probation but was let off due to good behavior. It’s not clear how his age will factor into the charges.

Tra Vontay has asked for a court-appointed attorney and the case is expected to go to a grand jury.

The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call at a home in the 9000 block of Waller Street at 9:20 p.m. Wednesday.

At the scene, deputies found a man and a woman shot. Despite life-saving efforts, Leroy Constantine Jr., 41, was pronounced dead.

First responders rushed the woman to the hospital, where she underwent surgery. She’s expected to survive.

Investigators learned that the victims got into a verbal argument with their 17-year-old son, which escalated to the suspect shooting them.

Although the teen, identified by deputies as Tra Vontay Constantine, initially left the scene, officials said he turned himself in at the MCSO shortly after. A video shows him walking into the sheriff’s office early Thursday morning.

ABC13 spoke to the victims’ daughter, who was home and forced to witness her father’s murder.

“My brother is not a bad person,” Breana Constantine said. “He has mental health issues. My mom and dad tried everything they possibly could with my brother.”

Breana said her parents were high school sweethearts with three children and two grandkids.

Tra is charged with murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He’s being held on $250,000 bond.

“Our hearts and prayers go out to the family and friends who are dealing with this tragedy,” Specialist Stephen Walker with MCSO said.

Walker said it’s unknown what the initial argument was about.

Detectives are still trying to determine where the gun came from because they said the parents didn’t own any.

Friends of the family have set up a GoFundMe.

Damarcus Coley News

A 23-year-old woman was shot and killed by her 14-year-old brother during a “domestic altercation” over Christmas presents, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office in Florida.

The shooting took place on Christmas Eve in Largo, a city in the Tampa Bay area.

The incident involved 23-year-old Abrielle Baldwin, a mother of two and the victim of the shooting, and her two brothers Damarcus Coley, 14, and Darcus Coley, 15.

A press release from Pinellas police states that the three siblings went Christmas shopping on Sunday along with their mother Joyce and Abrielle’s 11-month-old and six-year-old sons.

“While they were shopping, 15-year-old Darcus was jealous that their mother Joyce was getting 14-year-old Damarcus more gifts than he was receiving,” Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said in a Tuesday press conference.

“So they had this family spat about who was getting what, and what money was being spent on who, and they’re having this big thing going on in the store and they’re all arguing with each other,” Gualtieri added.

After leaving the store, the family headed to their grandmother’s house. The argument was still ongoing when the family arrived, culminating in Damarcus taking out a semi-automatic handgun and threatening to shoot Darcus in the head.

An uncle who had been at the grandmother’s house stepped in to separate the two boys and brought Damarcus outside to the driveway.

Baldwin, while holding her 11-month-old son in a carrier, approached her brother and told Damarcus “to stop arguing because it was Christmas,” police wrote.

Damarcus started arguing with his sister and threatened to shoot her and the baby. The 14-year-old then shot Baldwin. The bullet went through her left arm and into her chest. The baby was unharmed.

Shortly after the shot was fired, Darcus exited his grandmother’s house and found that his brother shot his sister. He took out another firearm and shot Damarcus. Darcus then tossed his gun into a nearby yard and fled the scene.

Emergency workers responded to the scene of the shooting and Baldwin and Damarcus were transported to a local hospital. Baldwin was pronounced dead at the hospital while Damarcus underwent surgery.

Damarcus is in stable condition and will transported to the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice upon his release from the hospital, Sheriff Gualtieri said.

After the shooting, Darcus fled to a relative’s house. After he tried contacting his mother, he was located by police and arrested. Darcus made statements alluding to self-harm when police took him in, so he was transported to a mental health facility.

He will be transferred next to the Pinellas Juvenile Assessment Center.

Damarcus Coley has been charged with first degree murder, child abuse and delinquent possession of a firearm. Prosecutors are reviewing his case to decide if he will be tried as an adult for the killing of his sister.

Darcus has been charged with attempted first-degree murder and tampering with physical evidence. The firearm Darcus used in the shooting is still missing.

Gualtieri said in Tuesday’s press conference that the two boys carried guns all the time, according to interviews with their relatives, and they had both previously been booked for car burglaries and other crimes.

“The problem is, is you got way too many kids out there with way too many guns,” Gualtieri said. “They’re not old enough to understand and have the right coping mechanisms to deal with this stuff when they are upset.”

It’s believed that both guns used in the shooting were obtained illegally, either purchased on the street or stolen from unlocked cars.

“In the last thirty days, we’ve taken reports where seventeen guns have been stolen from unlocked cars,” Gualtieri said.

A Bronx, New York, triple murder suspect is accused of stabbing his 5-year-old half-brother, whom he was babysitting on Saturday, his father, and his father’s girlfriend, even beating the victims with a pot.

The arrest of 19-year-old Jayden Rivera came Wednesday, days after the alleged murders of his father, 38-year-old Jonathan Rivera, his father’s girlfriend, 33-year-old Hanoi Peralta, and his half-brother, 5-year-old Kayden Rivera, because he has been undergoing psychiatric evaluation at Westchester County Medical Center, where he “made some spontaneous utterings that he did something bad, and that he killed somebody,” according to NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny.

After the slayings, Jayden Rivera allegedly went back to his mother’s home, where he lived, said he had been “hearing voices,” and said that he “thought that Mr. Rivera and Ms. Peralta were going to hurt him,” Kenny said. The suspect’s bloody clothes were allegedly found at his mom’s apartment.

The NYPD said that 5-year-old Kayden Rivera was found at the Mott Haven stabbing scene early Sunday, allegedly “disemboweled” by his half-brother and babysitter. Cops have also said Jonathan Rivera was stabbed in the chest and Peralta, Kayden’s mother, was stabbed 15 times after the two returned home from a date. In addition, the victims were reportedly beaten with a pot from the kitchen, denting the pot.

The murder and manslaughter case stunned family members of the suspect, who reportedly didn’t have a history of mental illness and was the first in his family to go to college.

Neighbors who overheard the violence were also horrified in retrospect.

“There was this last thing, where the man went … ahh and it might have been the fatal blow and then it got quiet,” one reportedly told CBS New York.”

“I opened my door to go to work and the body was there,” the resident reportedly said.

Fernando Cruz, another neighbor, reportedly recalled hearing “a scuffle or something going on in the hallway.”
