Prosecutors have charged the sister of reality TV personality Kash in the Oakland shooting that killed her.

The charge

The Alameda County District Attorney filed a felony involuntary manslaughter count against 38-year-old Vernika Dunbar after Kash died Sunday morning in Oakland.

Oakland police say Dunbar first tried to help her sister by swinging a pistol at a woman who was fighting with Kash. Police say Dunbar then fired a round that struck Kash. Kash was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Who Kash was

Kash, also known as Mackayla Paige, appeared on "Real West Coast Baddies," "Room H8z" and "Young & Reckless." On the Saturday night before the shooting she posted Instagram clips of a night out.

Nobody else has been named as a shooter. The case is in the courts.
