Man Allegedly Kills Brother Over Cheeseburger
A Florida man accused of killing his older brother in an argument over a cheeseburger has appeared in court.
Police say Benjamin Middendorf shot his sibling in the chest with a 9mm handgun on Thursday night in St Cloud, 28 miles (45km) south of Orlando.
The 25-year-old suspect was arraigned on Saturday on charges of first-degree premeditated murder.
The altercation began when the 28-year-old victim, Nicholas Middendorf, their mother and a third man returned to the home from a night out, according to a police report.
"I just shot my brother on accident," a distraught man is heard telling a 911 dispatcher in audio of the call released by police.
"We were in a fight and I grabbed a gun and I shot him. Oh God. I’m so sorry."
Mr Middendorf was pronounced dead at the scene.
A woman's voice could be heard on the 911 call saying: "I hope you go to jail."
St Cloud Police Department spokesperson Denise Roberts told Bay News 9: "This is an impulsive incident that happened. Maybe anger, rage.
"But it was definitely over a verbal dispute that sadly, it was over a cheeseburger."

Washington DC might become a state, and get a new name

Washington DC might become a state, and get a new name Washington DC might become a state, and get a new name Washington DC might become a state, and get a new name As the capital of the United States, Washington DC is not  one of the 50 states. It’s a “federal district,” hence “District of Columbia,” shortened to “D.C.” But that could soon change, as they are currently bidding for statehood . If that happened, Washington DC would become the 51st state, and its leaders would give it an entirely new name. That name could quite likely be “New Columbia,” an old name that was approved by voters in a 1982 referendum in which Washington DC tried for statehood. It originates from Italian explorer Christopher Columbus, who is obviously a critical part of U.S. history. Washington, D.C. could have been renamed "Anacostia," but advocates for statehood chose "New Columbia." 󾓬󾓦󾓬󾓦󾓬󾓦… Posted by International B...
