Original Note:
According to the Obama/Holder DOJ report, Michael Brown was stopped as the suspect in a strong-arm robbery. He reached into the police car, punched the officer, grabbed his gun & got shot in the hand. He retreated but then charged the officer again & was fatally shot. https://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/03/04/doj_report_on_shooting_of_michael_brown_1.pdf
