There's still much we don't know about what happened in the early morning hours of April 30.

Parents of one of the two killed say body camera recordings show their unarmed son shot in the head shortly after he tried to jump out of the disabled car he was in.THORNTON, Colo. — Ten miles away from Thornton as the crow flies, a trio of that city’s police officers quietly followed a car with no back plates into Lakewood in the early hours of the morning of April 30. The surveillance started in Thornton but stretched into Lakewood around 3 a.m. The three officers were in two unmarked cars.

Minutes later, near the intersection of 2nd Avenue and Garrison Street, the two people traveling in the car being pursued were dead. Vigil’s parents have also seen the body camera videos and this week openly questioned why their son is dead. A lot remains unknown about what precisely happened that morning. Thornton Police have so far elected not to answer any questions about their officers’ involvement in a shooting so far away from their jurisdiction. The coroner has said the other person shot and killed was Jasmine Castro.
