Overview
- Josiah Jones, 17, was shot once in the stomach inside his family’s home on Sunday morning and later died at Delray Medical Center.
- Police say Trenton Robinson, 24, of Georgia, had arrived to pick up his child he shares with Jones’s sister.
- A probable cause affidavit says Jones intervened in the argument, held Robinson on a bed, and a single shot followed as Robinson tried to get out of the hold, according to the sister.
- The victim’s mother heard a pop and saw her son fall, and the sister shouted "You just shot my brother" as she saw Robinson holding a gun, the affidavit says.
- Robinson told relatives and detectives the shooting was accidental, saying he pulled the gun from his sweatshirt pocket so he would not shoot himself, and he is jailed on one count of second-degree murder with a firearm.
