An 18-year-old Fort Myers man is charged with the shooting death of his father late Friday at an Indian Rocks Beach hotel room.
James Allen Davis, 41, was shot by his son Brandon Lee Davis with a semi-automatic handgun after a domestic dispute, according to detectives.
On Friday night James Allen Davis and his wife Dana were in an argument that later their son Brandon Lee Davis got involved with.
At approximately 10:25 p.m. during the argument Brandon Lee Davis took out a semi-automatic handgun and shot his father several times causing his death, detectives said.
