12:00 PM: Mike Brown and Dorian Johnson are casually walking in the middle of Canfield Drive. This was/is a common practice on this street on a Saturday afternoon in this neighborhood. They notice a police SUV coming toward them.

12:00 PM: Officer Darren Wilson, driving past them, slows down and tells them "to get the fuck on the sidewalk." Brown remains silent while Dorian Johnson tells Wilson that they are just a minute away from their destination.

12:00 PM: Wilson, having passed them by, violently puts the car in reverse, screeching the tires in the street, nearly hitting Brown and Johnson, who are forced to jump out of the way, stops right next to them, and thrusts open his door. The driver's side door only opens only a few inches because it hits Mike Brown and ricochets back into Wilson.

12:01 PM: A struggle ensues at the window of the police SUV, which causes Brown to lose his red, fitted baseball cap, found at this exact location after the shooting. Wilson immediately grabs at the neck of Brown as Brown tries to pull away, Wilson pulls his weapon, and threatens to shoot Brown. Brown's hands remain outside of the SUV, and he uses the vehicle as leverage to pull away.

During this struggle, the first shot is fired from inside the vehicle by Wilson. It hits Brown in his chest/arm area.

Fearing for their lives, Brown and Johnson flee in different directions. Brown loses one of his flip-flops approximately 20 feet from the SUV. Johnson hides behind a black Monte Carlo.

Wilson, gun drawn, exits his SUV and prepares to fire at a fleeing Brown.
