Nearly a week after a police officer shot and killed Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., police on Friday identified the officer as Darren Wilson.
Wilson is a six-year veteran of the Ferguson police with no disciplinary record, Ferguson police chief Thomas Jackson said at a news conference on Friday morning.
Jackson provided few other details about Wilson at the news conference and did not take any questions. He said that Wilson had been responding to a call shortly before noon on Saturday when there was a 911 call regarding a strong-arm robbery at a convenience store.
A description of a possible suspect was given over the radio, saying this person was walking toward the QuickTrip convenience store in Ferguson. An incident report handed out by police on Friday labeled Brown as a suspect in the convenience store robbery, which involved the theft of some Swisher Sweets cigars.
Wilson left the call he had been responding to and encountered Brown on Canfield Drive at 12:01 p.m., Jackson said.
Police also released these stills depicting a confrontation between Brown and a convenience store worker:

see post number 28... link looks pretty convincing..
Why in the world would the police withhold this information. From the video, the robbery was by force and threat and was a black on black crime. No one is going to believe this if they are invested in the innocent teen scenario. That includes the president.
“An incident report handed out by police on Friday labeled Brown as a suspect in the convenience store robbery, which involved the theft of some Swisher Sweets cigars.”
For those of you not familiar with modern ghetto customs, there is only one purpose that “Swisher Sweets” are used for by young people nowadays. They cut them open, dump out the tobacco, and fill them with marijuana to make “blunts” - marijuana cigars.
I believe you are right on!!!
I don’t thinks so.
So, the ‘angel’ Michael Brown robbed a convenience store for some cigars?..........................
Well ... why would all of the witnesses say he was white. He doesn’t look remotely white. If it’s the same guy.
I thought the office might not be white because the so called, “witnesses” said nothing about race. If the officer was white, I suspect that it would have been shouted from the rooftops.
oh PLEASE let it be true... and please provide a backup for this!!
I believe that is a different Darren Wilson -- on the St. Louis police force. According to the statement, Ferguson's Darren Wilson had been a policeman for only six years.
Appears to be a racial hate crime.
Wait.... was the convenience store worker gay?
All part of the Obama agenda to destroy the country, enflame race relations, tell blacks that they are the protected class, they can do anything they want because nothing is their fault and what happens? Rioting, looting, knockout games, and anybody who complains about it is racist. He’s just using them as another tool to destroy the country just like he uses illegals while he focuses on his main agenda which is to empower and help spread radical Islam. That’s all he’s done since day one: Destroy the US internally while empowering radical Islam, yet Congress just sits back and laughs at it all.
I saw the pics from the security cam.
Brown is huge, going after store clerk.
Browns friend is also a suspect.
Clerk called -11 for the robbery.
Brown may have been juiced up with adrenalin when he pounded the officers face, trying to restructure the officers cranium.
Imagine 6 ‘4, 300 pounds, grabbing you with bad intentions.
Oh, I almost forgot, as far as we know, he did not have skittles or Ice tea.
Were a some witnesses at the scene, not credible ones, but I’m sure one may have noticed he was black.
The witness, his friend that was with him and who apparently was part of the robbery, too, stated that the office was a “Caucasian male”.
Whoa....great point!!!
Conversely, if the officer was known to be black the leadership of the Black community would have shut the protests down immediately.
They would have seen the inevitable PR disaster in playing the race card in such a scenario.

Haven't they been saying things have slowed down a bit? Maybe the crowd learned officer was black.
That is, if the officer is black.
