"Why would he be shot in the very top of his head, a 6-foot-4 man?"

All the other shots were to the front. Saint Michael was falling forward when the last shot caught him.

A Glock can fire four rounds per second. The cop was in panic mode with a bull charging right at him. When he started shooting Saint Michael was upright and facing him. When he stopped shooting Saint Michael was getting ready to bite the dust, but he wasn't quite there yet.

It’s possible that the “arms raised” claim derived from witnesses seeing Brown extend his arms to brace for the fall as he was going down, just prior to the head shot, which I think was probably the final shot.

Yep It does seem that way. Cop was left of center mass when he fired the first shot. Recoil allowed for the rise of the bullet path as he continued to pull the trigger.

Saint Michael was falling after wound to chest. Hence wound in top of head.
