This article is so full of bad information it’s pathetic.
Didn’t get the officer’s name correct. The store that was robbed was not looted and burned. The officer’s initial contact with Brown was not related to the robbery.
Good grief.
Name has been fixed at link. Even if Wilson did not know of the robbery and bolo for suspect matching description of Brown, which is hard to believe, Brown definitely related the police contact to the fact that he just robbed a store. How many unwitting cops have been killed on routine traffic stops because the perps were on the run, and thought that they’d just been caught?
