Sanford PD told woman to "stop calling 911" hours before she was killed 
 
 Three hours before Latina Herring was murdered, she can be seen on Sanford police body camera video arguing with her boyfriend, Allen Cashe, the man accused of taking his AK-47 and going on a shooting rampage, killing Herring, her 8-year-old son and attempting to kill her 7-year-old son, her father and two bystanders.

 At 3:20 in the morning Monday, police were called to a Wawa. 
 
 “I don’t have her house keys,” Cashe says on the body camera video. 
 
 “Man, you got my keys,” she yells. 
 
 “I’m not trying to play games,” said Cashe. “You have an attitude coming home from the club drunk.” 
 
 Twenty minutes later, police were called again, to a home on Hays Drive. According to video released by Sanford police Friday, officers on scene dismissed Herring’s concerns. 
 
 “She’s making false accusations,” an officer said. “It’s the second time she’s done it.” 
 
 At one point, police tell Herring to “stop calling 911.” 
 
 “We’re going to handle it,” an officer tells Herring. “Just stop calling 911 and making accusations that you don’t know about.” 
 
 Police, in the video, say the couple was just arguing and it was not physical. They call it a “civil matter.” At one point Cashe is handcuffed and placed in the back of a patrol car but is released. Police say there was no reason to arrest anyone. 
 
 One officer says Herring, frustrated, said she should have just lied and said Cashe hit her. 
 
 It is unclear why Cashe, or Herring, called 911. Officers on scene remarked he may have wanted to harm her. 
 
 “I think he’s calling because he’s afraid he’s going to do something to her,” an officer said to another. 
 
 Herring’s friend Ladasha Beasley says Sanford police should have done more. 
 
 “Sanford PD’s a big disappointment to me and to others,” said Beasley. “To protect and serve who man? Who? Justice needs to be served.” 
 
 Sanford police did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the newly released body camera video and how officers handled the scene. 
 
 Cashe is accused of going on his shooting spree around 6:30 a.m. Police let him leave the scene after he got his keys, which sparked the argument. 
 
 The four shooting survivors remain in the hospital. Three are stable and one is in critical condition. ||||| Breaking News Emails Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.

 Editor’s note: An earlier version of this story said police told the victim to stop calling 911. In fact, they were speaking to a third-party, in another location, who was on the phone with police. 
 
 A few hours before a Florida woman and her 8-year-old son were fatally shot last week, police responded to a domestic dispute between the woman and the suspect. 
 
 Early on the morning of March 27, Sanford police were twice called to intervene between Latina Verneta Herring, 35, and Allen Dion Cashe, 31, who were quarreling over the keys to her house and car, according to an arrest report obtained by NBC affiliate WESH of Orlando and The Orlando Sentinel. 
 
 About three hours later, around 6:30 a.m., Cashe emptied the magazine of an assault-style rifle, investigators said. Herring, who was shot seven times, died at the scene. Her 8-year-old son, Branden, was critically wounded; he died Tuesday. Police said four other people were also shot — Herring's father and 7-year-old son, who were critically wounded, and two bystanders.

 Police body camera video of the pre-shooting encounters with Herring show her and a man identified as Cashe yelling at each other at a gasoline station about who has the car keys. 
 
 "I'm not trying to play games," Cashe tells Herring on the video. "You have an attitude coming home from the club drunk." 
 
 About 20 minutes later, officers were again called, this time to Herring's home. In the police video, Cashe is handcuffed and placed in a patrol car, but he is then released after officers conclude that it is a civil matter, not a criminal one. 
 
 "She's making false accusations," one of the officers says to another cop. "It's the second time she's done it."

 Three hours later, Herring was dead, both of her sons and her father were critically wounded and two bystanders suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds. 
 
 In the arrest report, investigators said Cashe admitted to "firing an entire magazine from his AK-47 style" rifle, shooting Herring and "possibly 'accidentally' shooting both children while they were sleeping." According to the arrest report, he told investigators that he was upset with Herring for calling police and for "stealing his car keys." 
 
 But Police Chief Cecil E. Smith said the day of the shooting: "The cause of this was Mr. Cashe's making the decision to recklessly shoot and harm these individuals." 
 
 Sanford Mayor Jeff Triplett said in a statement that he was deeply saddened by "the senseless shooting in Sanford," adding: "Domestic violence is a reality in society that doesn't distinguish itself among race, creed, location, color or class." 
 
 According to court records, Cashe remains in jail without bond pending arraignments on April 17 on a charge of violating parole and on May 2 on two counts of first-degree premeditated murder, five counts of attempted homicide and a count of possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
– Body cam video released by police in Sanford, Fla., after a man allegedly went on a shooting spree last week that killed his girlfriend and her 8-year-old son, shows cops scoffing at the woman's "false accusations" and telling her to "stop calling 911," WESH reports. In the early morning of March 27, police responded twice to an altercation between 35-year-old Latina Herring and 31-year-old Allen Cashe, per an arrest report cited by NBC News. In the first encounter around 3:20am at a gas station, Herring and Cashe are seen screaming at each other about who was holding onto the keys, with Cashe insisting, "I'm not trying to play games" and telling Herring she had an "attitude" after coming home intoxicated after a night out. Less than half an hour later, cops were called once again, this time to a home NBC identifies as Herring's, and they don't appear to be taking Herring seriously. "It's the second time she's done it," one officer is heard saying about Herring's so-called "false accusations," with another telling her that police were going to "handle" the situation but that she should "just stop calling 911." How they handled it: Cashe was cuffed and placed in the back of a police vehicle, but then let go after cops determined the incident was a "civil matter." Just a few hours later, Cashe reportedly opened fire, killing Herring and her son. Herring's 7-year-old son and father were injured in the attack, as were two bystanders; WESH says three are in stable condition, one in critical condition. Cashe is in jail without bond until his first arraignment on April 17 for parole violation, followed by a May 2 appearance on charges of premeditated murder, attempted homicide, and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
