Unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown was executed with multiple gunshots by a Ferguson, Missouri policeman. Brown and a friend were walking down a street. They were confronted by police for walking in the street. Still in his car, the officer then grabbed Brown by his neck, [Dorian] Johnson said. Brown tried to pull away, but the officer kept pulling Brown toward him, he said. The officer drew his weapon, and "he said, 'I'll shoot you' or 'I'm going to shoot' " and almost instantaneously fired his weapon, hitting Brown, Johnson said. Johnson and a bloodied Brown took off running, and Johnson hid behind the first car he saw, he said.
