The 24-year old was already locked up on unrelated kidnapping and child abuse charges. Now Tony faces charges of charged with first-degree murder, felony conspiracy to commit murder, assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious bodily injury, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, five counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of discharging a weapon into an occupied property causing serious injury and three counts of discharging a weapon into an occupied vehicle/residence.

Z'Yon's aunt says she was driving Z'Yon and his four cousins to get snowcones when Tony opened fire.

"I hear a horn and when the horn beeped I looked around," she reportedly said. "I'm getting ready to turn and...I hear gunshots but I didn't know they were shooting at me. They're going to pay. I promise. They're going to rot in hell for what they did."

Tony was denied bond and will next be in court on November 21.

So far no comment from Rich The Kid.

RIP, Z'Yon.
