FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. — (AP) — The family of a Black U.S. Air Force airman who was fatally shot by deputies who burst into his apartment in the Florida Panhandle said Thursday that they wanted to clear his name and that authorities had put forth a false narrative that deputies acted in self-defense.
Senior Airmen Roger Fortson did not know it was sheriff's deputies who were breaking into his apartment . . .
