Man shot, killed in suburban West Palm
A 35-year-old man was shot dead during a fight early this morning at a warehouse west of West Palm Beach, authorities said.
The man, whose name was not immediately released, got into an altercation about 1 a.m. with a man who lives in a trailer by the warehouse, located at 197 65th Terrace, just north of Southern Boulevard and west of Jog Road, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
The man was shot at least once in the chest area and transported to St. Mary's Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead about 4 a.m., sheriff's spokeswoman Teri Barbera said.
The shooter, whose identity was not released this morning, was questioned by investigators but not arrested. Detectives are probing whether the shooting was a case of self-defense.
With the investigation continuing this morning, officials released no details about what prompted the fight between the two men or why it escalated to gunfire.
