COCOA, Fla. -- An unknown gunman fired into the crowd gathered at the burial service of a teenager who was fatally shot by a Florida sheriff’s deputy earlier this month.
Officials say the deceased teen’s mother was wounded in the Saturday afternoon shooting. About 50 people were paying respects to 18-year-old Sincere Pierce.
Pierce and 16-year-old Angelo Crooms were killed Nov. 13 by a Brevard County Sheriff’s deputy. The shot hit Pierce's mother.
Family members attended to her before paramedics arrived.
She was taken to a hospital and her condition was not available. Investigators were at the cemetery searching for clues.
