Ibragim Todashev, who was killed during an FBI interview last week, was unarmed when he was fatally shot, fueling speculation that his association with Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was enough, in the eyes of police, to be fatal.

The death of Ibragim Todashev has been shrouded in mystery since
he was mortally wounded during an interview with FBI agents on
May 22. Before Wednesday’s admission that the 27-year-old was
unarmed at the time of his death, investigators offered
conflicting accounts of what happened in Todashev’s final
minutes.   

Todashev associated with Tamerlan Tsarnaev from mixed martial
arts and boxing circles in the Boston area before he moved from
Cambridge, Massachusetts to Orlando, Florida. FBI officials
maintained he was never a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing.
