Forsyth County deputies responded to a home on Homestead Ridge Drive in reference to a shooting at about 5:50 p.m. According to the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Department, Rajeev Kumaraswamy had gotten into an argument with his father, Sadashivia Kumaraswamy. Rajeev allegedly retrieved a gun from his room and shot his father several times. 

Sadashivia was pronounced dead at the scene.
