While investigators are still trying to figure out what led to the shooting and who fired first, they say it appears Vasquez, an FBI special agent, and a task force member from the New Britain Police Department all fired a weapon.
The report said investigators believe Vasquez’s semi-automatic pistol was found at the scene.
The task force members did not have body cameras or dash cam video.
An investigation is underway to see if the shooting was justified.
