Man shot in Lakeland crashed car into home, strikes e-bike rider: PCSO
Polk County Sheriff (PCSO) said first responders went to an apartment home on Pirates Way around 1:30 p.m. for a report of a white Mercedes that crashed into a home. As rescue crews were helping 19-year-old Davin Boutwell, who was in the car, they noticed he had been shot in the chest.
PCSO said they then found a second person, Nathaniel Jones, 38, on an electric bike under the car.
“It’s very sad to me that a man just minding his business, riding his electric bicycle, was murdered,” said Sheriff Grady Judd. “At this early stage of the investigation, he appears to have absolutely no involvement in this event. He was just so unfortunate to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.”…
