Default Robbery details?

What they're saying and showing are images of Mr. Brown committing a "Strong Arm Robbery" at a convenience store.
The pictures show him manhandling the store owner who is clearly wayyy smaller than Mr. Brown as in the owners head reaches Brown's shoulder height.
All for a box of Swisher Sweets (mini cigars popular in "the hood") value placed at $49.

Slugging doesn't imply a knife either. Once again... I missed the part where "slugging" someone meant they need to die.

There's the idiots with mascularity complexes; guns strapped on their back going around instigating fights because they know they won't lose. Must make them feel a little bigger, huh?

So, now that this information comes out is it very hard to make the jump from strong arm robbery to fighting with a cop? Maybe Mr. Brown thought the cop had more Swisher's on him or needed a lighter and thought the cop had one in his holster?
Maybe he wasn't "really" going for the cops gun but the cop felt as he was as they were fighting in the car?
Many more facts need to come out before we claim guilt for anyone (except on the robbery as pictures tell the tale).

Video cam footage from the store, shown on Fox News as well as information released from the P.D. this morning.

Yeah, but we can't claim guilt just yet.

Now, is that the same clothes Brown's dead body was wearing? I never got a clear veiw.
