Police: Teen confesses to fatal shooting of St. Petersburg officer (with video)

Officer David S. Crawford
(CNN) -- A 16-year-old Florida boy faces a first-degree murder charge in the shooting death of a police officer in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The death of Officer David Crawford represented the third time in less than a month that a law-enforcement officer was killed in the city.
Police said they have charged Nicholas L. Lindsey, a student in the Pinellas County school system.
"He was very remorseful," St. Petersburg police Maj. Mike Kovacsev told reporters Wednesday afternoon. "He did provide a full admission."
Lindsey has been charged as juvenile for Crawford's murder, police said Wednesday. However, the teen could be tried as an adult because of his age and the seriousness of the charge, but the state attorney general will make that decision, a judge told the boy.
