TAMPA - A 19-year-old man was charged with second-degree murder late Thursday after he
told detectives he shot another 19-year-old on his lawn, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's
Office said. Kristopher D. Sanders, of 850 Rocky Mountain Court, Valrico, was being held
without bail at the Orient Road Jail this morning, records show. The sheriff's office said
Sanders shot Tyrie Gunn, of 4704 Little Denise Court, Valrico, about 7:30 p.m. Thursday
during an argument. Sanders got a .45-caliber pistol from his house when he saw Gunn
approaching and waited for him at the front door, the sheriff's office said. As words were
exchanged, Sanders shot Gunn once in the chest and once in the head. Gunn collapsed about
40 feet from the house and died.
