Florida Man Kills Girlfriend And Child Over Changing The Football Channel.

A Florida man is accused of shooting and killing his girlfriend and her 10-year-old son after a heated argument started when he changed the channel to watch football.

Tyrone Terell Johnson, 42, was placed under arrest when officers responded to a 911 call late Sunday inside a Tampa home.

Johnson told Hillsborough County deputies that he was on his way out of the door after he and his girlfriend got into an heated argument over changing a channel to watch a football game.

He said that he started packing his bags in the master bedroom when his girlfriend allegedly walked in and began “verbally berating” him.

He claims that she pushed him off of his ‘knee roller’ and he sat down on the floor next to the bed,” the documents stated.

The boy, who is not Johnson’s son, then accused the 42-year-old of hitting his mother.

Johnson allegedly pushed the child, grabbed his handgun and began firing at his girlfriend while she was holding a PlayStation. He shot and killed the child, who had walked out, police said.

Johnson faces several charges including murder and aggravated child abuse in the death of his girlfriend and her 10-year-old son, neither of who were not identified.
