The Palm Beach Sheriff's Office said Friday that it had requested the assistance of the FBI, which agreed to help investigate the death of Corey Jones.
Jones was shot early Sunday in Palm Beach Gardens while waiting for a
tow truck in his broken-down vehicle. Police say an undercover officer
was checking on what he thought was an abandoned vehicle when he was
confronted by an "armed subject."
Jones' family says he was legally in possession of a gun and was likely
unaware that the plainclothes officer in an unmarked car was a law
enforcement official. Authorities have not released the officer's race.
