A woman claiming to be a friend of Darren Wilson is speaking out to say that Michael Brown “bum rushed” the officer before he was fatally shot.
The woman, going by the name “Josie,” gave Wilson’s side in a radio interview on Friday with Dana Loesch at KTFK.
CNN and other mainstream outlets picked up the story on Monday after verifying that Josie’s claims match what Wilson told Ferguson police happened before the shooting. Loesch noted on Friday that Josie’s rendition had not been verified.
Josie said that Wilson confronted Brown and his friend, Dorian Johnson, who were walking in the middle of the street last Saturday. The two allegedly verbally rebuked Wilson, who continued driving

“And, they gave a description. And, he’s looking at them and they got something in their hands and it looks like it could be what, you know those cigars or whatever.”
“So he goes in reverse back to them. Tries to get out of his car. They slam his door shut violently. I think he said Michael did. And, then he opened the car again. He tried to get out. He stands up,” Josie said.
“And then Michael just bum-rushes him and shoves him back into his car. Punches him in the face and them Darren grabs for his gun. Michael grabbed for the gun. At one point he got the gun entirely turned against his hip. And he shoves it away. And the gun goes off.”
I thought it was reported as a truck.
And, then he opened the car again.
Wasn't it a truck, not a car?
Punches him in the face and them Darren grabs for his gun.
"Them" Darren? How many dudes is Darren?
See, ignorant blog crap like this will ruin a case.
Police are using SUV’s with lowered suspension lately. I think they quit marking the Crown Vic and this is what they are going to.
In the video of the shooting’s aftermath, you can see the department uses these SUV’s....which are so low slung that some people call them ‘police cars’.
It was an evil SUV.
If it’s an SUV, it’s a truck.
Not a car.
I defy anyone to buy insurance for one and then tell me it’s classified as a car.
Yes, the ones I have seen are Tahoes. A friend of mine son is a deputy sheriff and He just got a new Tahoe issued to him like those being described.
I think I see bow ties in the Ferguson coverage, so it is probably the Tahoe....or ‘Tahoe PPV’.

A truck for sure...but I often hear them referred to as ‘police cars’, since it rolls of the tongue better than ‘police truck’.
Michael Brown gets out of the cop vehicle then charges the cop, Darren Wilson.
Dorian Johnson was with Michael Brown during the robbery and was an eye-witness or participant to events later in the street.
This is one of the first accounts of what the cop said happened. ..she was not a witness.
I'd sure hate to have to rely on the MSM to tell me what happened.
