SUMMARY: Brandon police are searching for two suspects who fired multiple shots into a home in the 100 block of Faith Way. No one was inside the home at the time of the shooting. Homeowners Association President Ben Luther expressed shock at the incident, stating it was unprecedented in the neighborhood. Surveillance video shows two individuals approaching the home and firing shots. Police urge anyone with information to contact them. Luther emphasized that the shooting does not define the community and hopes it is not how people perceive them. Residents are asked to keep those affected in their thoughts and prayers.
