RadioOnFire.com - Tyson Gay's 15-year old daughter Trinity was shot and killed early Sunday morning, and now three men have been charged in connection with her death.
The U.S. Olympic sprinter's daughter died after she was hit in the neck outside the Cook Out restaurant in Lexington, Kentucky around 4 a.m. There was an exchange of gunfire between people in two parked vehicles. Police spokeswoman Brenna Angel said police don't believe Trinity Gay was in either of the vehicles involved; she was, unfortunately, an innocent bystander.
D'Vonta Middlebrooks fired multiple shots during the incident, according to Lexington police investigators. He was charged with wanton endangerment and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. A father and son were also charged Sunday. Chazerae Taylor, 38, and his 19-year-old son D'Markeo both face wanton endangerment counts for their participation in the incident.
Like her father, Trinity Gay was a standout sprinter, placing in the top five in several events at the state championships in May. Her father still holds the state record in the 100 set in 2001.
Tyson Gay said he and his daughter were very close, according to Lexington TV station WLEX, which spoke to him Sunday."It's so crazy. I have no idea what happened," Gay told the station.
