A 22-year-old man has been arrested after a toddler found a loaded gun and shot his mother while she was on a Zoom call in August, the Florida State Attorney's Office said Tuesday. Shamaya Lynn, 21, died from the gunshot wound.
Veondre Avery, Lynn's boyfriend and the alleged owner of the gun, was charged with negligent manslaughter and unsafe storage of a firearm. He was taken to the Seminole County Jail without incident, the attorney's office said.
Lynn was on a Zoom conference call for work on August 11 when she fell backward and never returned to the call, the attorney's office said. Another person on the call called 911, reporting that they saw a toddler in the background, heard a noise and saw Lynn fall.
