A grief-stricken mother has said she is proud of her 16-year-old son, who was shot and killed by a Florida deputy while he was allegedly armed and shoplifting.

Jairus Jones was gunned down by an off-duty Osceola County officer during a Walmart shoplifting incident on Thursday, Sheriff Chris Blackman said in a press release.

'My son Jairus, who everyone knew and loved as JJ, was a bright beautiful light in this world,' Naporsha Jones Spruill told WESH.

'As his mother, I am beyond proud of the young man he was becoming. He was full of life, full of love, and full of dreams.

'Our hearts are shattered, but we want the world to remember JJ for his smile, his energy, and the love he gave so freely.'

The deputy, working off-duty as Walmart security, was alerted that three people were trying to steal.

Upon confronting the three suspects, he noticed one was armed with a handgun.

Jones allegedly tried to run from the deputy and rushed toward other customers, prompting the officer to open fire, according to the OCSO.

Jairus Jones.  A dindo nuffin.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

A future brain surgeon, no doubt, if only his life hadn't been snuffed out (thanks to his own stupidity).

The headline is often enough to know what happened, with this and so many others.
14 people, including children, shot at Birthday Party! Gee, I wonder what happened?
Gunfire at concert, 10 people killed! Everybody knows what happened just from the headline.
