Ferguson PD Chief sez offier was aware Brown was strong-arm robber
[Daily Caller] Ferguson, Mo. police chief Tom Jackson now says that Darren Wilson, the police officer who fatally shot Michael Brown last Saturday, realized after he stopped Brown and a friend in the street that he was responsible for a strong-arm robbery at a convenience store.
The new information, which Jackson provided to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, comes at the tail end of a day of turmoil and confusion most of which was created by Jackson.
In his first Friday bombshell, at an early-morning press conference, Jackson first reported Wilsons name. He also released an information packet that contained evidence that Brown had taken part in the strong-arm robbery mere minutes before he was shot.
Nothing to see here. Just a couple of defiant local youth strolling down the middle of the street with a fist full of cigars. Probably no connection to that 911 five minutes ago. Time for a cup of coffee.
