Original Note:
There was no use of unnecessary force against Michael Brown. The DOJ investigation confirmed he did not have his hands up when he was shot. He tried to take the police officers gun and assaulted officer Wilson. Brown was shot while he was running at Wilson. https://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/03/04/doj_report_on_shooting_of_michael_brown_1.pdf https://www.politico.com/story/2015/12/hands-up-dont-shoot-false-216736
