On an otherwise quiet Saturday, April 22, 2017, in Midfield, Alabama, a dispute escalated into a tragedy that claimed the lives of two men, one of whom was Vincent Price Jr., a 42-year-old male. The senseless act of violence that cut his life short stemmed from a disagreement over a cell phone.
The altercation that led to the fatal shootings also resulted in the death of 31-year-old Brandon Durrell Conwell.
Both Price and Conwell were fathers, and their sudden and violent deaths sent shockwaves through their families and the local community. The incident was described by family members as a 'senseless killing.'
In the aftermath of the double homicide, law enforcement officials launched an investigation that quickly pointed to a primary suspect. U.S. Marshals later apprehended Carlos Heard, who was subsequently charged with the murders of both Vincent Price Jr. and Brandon Durrell Conwell. The arrest brought a measure of hope for justice to the grieving families of the two victims.
