On scene where #KevinPetersonJr was killed. Family is trying to get info. @ClarkCountySO says they need to call Camas police 311 and ask for PIO. Family says they already did that and there is no PIO. Camas will not have press release today
@ClarkCountySO says Camas can't investigate til morning. #KevinPetersonJr body is still in street, but they are towing his car from Quality Inn Parking lot
Qaulity Inn staff has been behind police tape all night, that family was not able to cross. They thought he was a cop. Family says, cops said they don't know where #KevinPetersonJr car was, then tow truck showed and took his car.
