TAMPA - Police and the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner have determined that the body found in a burning car about 4:52 a.m. is not a suspicious death.
Tracey Alan Jones, 43, lives at 1018 E. Jean St. in Seminole Heights and was found dead in a burning 1996 Cadillac sedan outside the home this morning, Tampa police said.
