Wilson fired the first shot
as the gun was pointed down towards his hip and the bullet went into the door making glass fly up. Do you think people don't get cuts from flying glass?
That still doesn't change what you said. You said Wilson said that after he shot Brown in the hand that is when he started attacking him again. That is not true.

His size and hands are the weapons.
Under well-established Fourth Amendment precedent, it is not objectively unreasonable
for a law enforcement officer to use deadly force in response to being physically assaulted by a
subject who attempts to take his firearm. See, e.g., Nelson, 162 F.3d at 990-91 (holding that it
was not objectively unreasonable for officer to shoot at a suspect through a closet door after
suspect attempted to grab his gun, hit him in the head with an asp, and pushed him into closet).
The government therefore cannot meet its burden of establishing probable cause to a grand jury
or proving beyond a reasonable doubt to twelve trial jurors that the shots fired by Wilson at the
SUV were unreasonable. These shots are thus not prosecutable violations of 18 U.S.C. § 242
