The FBI was involved in what it called a "violent confrontation" in Orlando, Fla., early Wednesday that killed a Chechen man with ties to the older brother suspected in last month's deadly terrorist bombing at the Boston Marathon.
CBS News senior correspondent John Miller, a former FBI assistant director, reported on "CBS This Morning" that the man, Ibragim Todashev, was friends with Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a suspect in the attack that killed three people and injured more than 260 others.
The FBI has not commented on the relationship between Todashev and Tsarnaev but confirmed that Todashev died in the shootout. Miller reports that, like Tsarnaev, who was once a boxer, Todashev was a mixed-martial-arts fighter.
In a statement Wednesday, the FBI didn't refer to Todashev by name but said that the individual who died was being interviewed in connection with the investigation into the April 15 attack. An FBI special agent was accompanied by two Massachusetts State Police troopers and other law-enforcement officers to interview Todashev in the apartment complex where he lived.
"In the encounter in the apartment, something went wrong," Miller said.
The FBI said that the interview subject initiated "a violent confrontation." The FBI said the agent "sustained non-life-threatening injuries" during the confrontation and was involved in the shooting but didn't provide any other details.
An official told CBS News that Todashev came at the agent with a knife.
Miller reported that the FBI went to the apartment after midnight Wednesday morning to question him. Todashev had been on the bureau's radar since Tsarnaev was identified as a suspect in the bombing.

A man being questioned in connection with the Boston Marathon bombings was shot and killed in Florida by an FBI agent as the man was about to admit his role in a triple murder, ABC News confirmed.
Ibragim Todashev and Khusen Taramov were questioned late Tuesday as part of the bombings by the FBI official and law enforcement officers in Orlando.
Taramov said Todashev, 27, knew bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev because both were MMA fighters.
Sources said Todashev was about to admit his role in a triple homicide that happened in Waltham on Sept. 11, 2011, when he "went crazy." Sources said Todashev pulled a knife and stabbed the FBI agent "several times, ABC reported.
"There was some sort of aggressive movement that led the FBI agent to believe he was under threat and he opened fire," the law enforcement official told ABC News.
In the Waltham incident, three people were found dead in an apartment with marijuana and cash covering their bodies. It was not clear what role Todashev may have played, but he was "about to sign a statement" admitting to a role with Tsarnaev in the unsolved murders.
Taramiv said the men were questioned for hours by the FBI at the Orlando apartment.
"(The FBI) took me and my friend, the suspect that got killed. They were talking to us, both of us, right? And they said they need him for a little more, for a couple more hours, and I left, and they told me they're going to bring him back. They never brought him back," Taramiv said.
He said Todashev spoke with Tsarnaev one month before the April 15 attack, but adamantly denied that Todashev had anything to do with the bombing.
"He felt inside he was going to get shot," Taramiv said about Todashev. "I told him, 'Everything is going to be fine, don't worry about it.' He said, 'I have a really bad feeling.'"
Tsarnaev was shot and killed during a shootout with police in Watertown last month, days after the bombings that claimed three lives and injured dozens of people.
His younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, was charged with using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death and malicious destruction of property resulting in death in connection with the bombings.
