Cartavis Austin, age 25, remains in jail, accused of actions eventually leading to the death of his son Londen, age 4.

The father was arrested May 10, the day after Londen was killed when a handgun the boys found in their Houston Street home discharged.

Police said Londen and another child were playing in the residence following a birthday party when the tragedy occurred.

The father is charged with illegally possessing a stolen firearm and being a felon in possession of a firearm. He is also charged as a parole violator.

Londen’s mother, LaToya Washington, has a GoFundMe account active to assist her and four surviving sons moving forward.

The father is being held under $200,000 bail.

His legal history dates to 2020 and includes a count of attempted second-degree murder among a number of felony charges.
