Mostly, if not all, the front of his body, which obviously suggests he was not fleeing.
So that gets us out of Garner. Then the question becomes whether hte shooting was justified at the time the shots were fired. Was he coming at Wilson? From how far away? Should Wilson really have thought Brown posed a risk of serious bodiliy injury or death to him if he had only "stumbled" toward him, as some have said.
None of us can really know. I am just trying to predict based on the reported witness statements (not under oath, I note).
Who knows. These folks may have testified differently under oath.

I disagree, Garner is relevant in that a struggle ensued at the police vehicle ,in which the service firearm was discharged.
This brings relevant suspicion of "poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others" into play.

There's been a lot of talk that the witness statements, under oath, are somewhat different than the witness statements, not under oath.

A three hundred pound monster punches you in the eye, grabs for your gun, takes off running then in a split second, charges back at you. You have less than 15 seconds to react.
Whadda ya do?
