ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — A community pulled together Tuesday to make sure a young boy whose grandfather was gunned down in a workplace shooting still got to celebrate his birthday.
Jeff Roberts was shot and killed inside Fiamma Inc. by John Robert Neumann, deputies said.
Neumann shot and killed four others before turning the gun on himself.
