I am trying to wrap my brain around this one. Dad kills son and roommate? Was the son just an accident? I saw roommate broke through a wall and Dad shot him. Was it dads gun? Or did roommate have a gun and that is how son got shot? Did they both have guns? Was this a wild west shootout you see in movies? All over roommate dropping his daughter and them fighting over it. This sounds crazy. I wonder if drugs or alcohol were involved. That would make so much more sense if that were it. Not to toss the 'they were in a trailer' out there but those walls are usually super thin. No wonder he was able to break down a wall. This story sounds like a fight scene in a movie. This is just wrong. Anyone have any further details on this one?

A domestic dispute in a Saucier, Mississippi mobile home on February 9, 2019, ended with two people dead, including two-year-old Chance Nathaniel Roberts. The argument began after roommate David Garcia reportedly dropped his infant daughter and became physical with Chance’s father, Billy Roberts. According to the affidavit, Garcia banged on a bedroom door and broke into a bathroom, shouting threats to kill Roberts and his son.

Billy Roberts told investigators he fired his gun at Garcia in what he described as self-defense; one bullet struck Chance in the chest while the child lay on the bed. Deputies who answered a late-night 911 call found both Garcia and young Chance deceased. Roberts was arrested and charged with murder and manslaughter and was held in the Harrison County jail on bonds totaling $1.5 million.

Did anyone in the area witness the argument or the moments before the shooting who can add details?
