A Ferguson Police officer named Darren Wilson, an officer with six years on the force and no disciplinary record, is the officer who shot and killed Michael Brown on Saturday, says chief Tom Jackson.
Jackson released Wilson's name to the media as well as information about a strongarm robbery that occurred just before Brown's death. Brown is the primary suspect in the incident, and Dorian Johnson, who has been vocal about witnessing Brown's death, is also a suspect, according to information released by police

Michael Brown put his own life in danger when he attacked the police officer. God bless Darren Wilson. America is a safer place without bully thugs like Michael Brown.
Well if the convience store clerk had shot him instead than I would agree with you. However when an agent of the state plugs a guy who obviously has surrendered that's a different story.
