Clermont Police are asking for the public's help in finding a stolen vehicle, last driven by a gunshot victim left dead in a Publix parking lot.  The gunshot victim has been identified as 21-year-old Andrew Da'Von Jones. FOX 35 attempted to reach out to his family.  They were beyond upset and did not want to talk about the death. 

Clermont Police say around 8:30 p.m. on Friday, while the grocery store at State Road 50 and Hartle Road was still open for business, someone alled 911 and reported a gunshot victim in the parking lot.  When police arrived, Jones was dead.

Police say a witness saw a white car leave the area, but they are not sure if it was involved in the crime. Police released a picture of the car that Jones was last known to be driving, a 2012 Volkswagon, CC, 4-door, white in color , bearing Florida tag No. N913QI, and possibly missing part of the front bumper.  Sgt. Shane Strickland with Clermont Police said the car belongs to Jones' mother.

Anyone with information should call Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS (8477), or contact Detective Sanchez at 352-343.
