New developments came Thursday in the tragic hit-and-run death of a 62-year-old woman. The victim was struck by a vehicle that fled the scene and then, she was run over by a responding Fairfax County police officer's cruiser. Fairfax County police released body camera footage from the officer who allegedly drove over the victim. Then, just hours later, police announced that they had found the suspect vehicle wanted in connection to the hit-and-run.

FAIRFAX, VA. - The family of Trina Jones is seeking justice after her death in a hit-and-run incident followed by being struck by a police cruiser last month.

Trina Jones, a 62-year-old mother of four, was initially struck by a hit-and-run driver on Sept. 24. As she lay in the roadway, she was struck once again by a Fairfax County Police Department cruiser, according to the Fairfax County Police Department (FCPD).

Although life-saving measures were taken by medics with the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department, Jones was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital shortly after.

Her family has hired The Cochran Firm to conduct an independent investigation into the incident.

"Our firm has been retained by Trina Jones' family to conduct our own independent investigation into her tragic and completely avoidable death," David Haynes, the family's attorney, said in a statement.

"This officer's conduct is inexcusable, and our investigation will certainly help determine how it is that he killed the very person he was coming to assist," Haynes added. "We will leave no stone unturned in our investigation as we work to get answers for Ms. Jones' family."

A FCPD press release last month stated that the officer who struck Jones had been identified as "a 2-year veteran assigned to the Mount Vernon Patrol District."

"As per department policy, the officer has been placed on restricted duty status pending the outcome of the investigation," the release stated.
