The shooter, identified by police as Lawrence Dority, stayed at the scene and was transported to Orange County Sheriff’s Office headquarters where he was interviewed by homicide detectives and booked for first-degree murder. He was then transported to Orange County Jail.

Payne, a Dayton native, started for three years at Michigan State. While in East Lansing, he became a force in the post, establishing himself as a talented offensive player and renowned rim protector.
