In reply to the discussion: Was Michael Brown surrendering to, or attacking, Officer Wilson? [View all]Lonusca
(202 posts)47. How exactly would that work?
He was shot in the top of the head, basically 90 degree would out the chin. How does that happen when he is on the ground? Even from a distance that's tough to prove.
Along with the arm wounds, it sounds like he was shot before he hit pavement. On knees with hands up (head tilted to shooter, maybe shot in head while going down) is my guess.
Another question for anyone - the picture of Brown laying in the street. Is the officer's car on his head side or his feet side?

OP
But there are witnesses who claim that Officer Wilson shot Mike Brown when he was already down.

Witnesses say that after Mike Brown was already down, the cop "shot him some more".
