Witness to Michael Brown Shooting Dies in Ferguson Domestic Incident; Self-Defense Claimed
Eleven years after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, Dorian Johnson, who was with Brown during the incident, has been shot and killed. The shooting occurred near the location of Brown’s death. Johnson’s account of the events, which contributed to the “hands up, don’t shoot” protest chant, has been the subject of scrutiny. Authorities are investigating the shooting as a possible domestic incident involving self-defense, and no charges have been filed.
