All three boys were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and survived. Their names and ages were not released.

The documents reveal that detectives explored the shooting incident, noting the conflict originated from a dispute over a car. Authorities indicated that Brown allegedly confronted his sons, with the argument intensifying and leading to the reported shooting of the three boys.

WTVT reported that Brown allegedly hit one of the boys in the head with the gun, which set the weapon off, sending a bullet across the boy’s jawline and hitting his earlobe. Brown reportedly ran to get into his car while the other two boys chased him. According to the documents, Brown then allegedly fired several shots at the other two boys.
