Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo., police officer whose fatal shooting of Michael Brown touched off more than a week of demonstrations, suffered severe facial injuries, including an orbital (eye socket) fracture, and was nearly beaten unconscious by Brown moments before firing his gun, a source close to the department's top brass told FoxNews.com.

“The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.”

According to the well-placed source, Wilson was coming off another case in the neighborhood on Aug. 9 when he ordered Michael Brown and his friend Dorain Johnson to stop walking in the middle of the road because they were obstructing traffic. However, the confrontation quickly escalated into physical violence, the source said..

“They ignored him and the officer started to get out of the car to tell them to move," the source said. "They shoved him right back in, that’s when Michael Brown leans in and starts beating Officer Wilson in the head and the face.

Well, we should take it with a grain of salt until facts can be confirmed, but that sure as hell makes a lot more sense than a police officer opening fire on someone in broad daylight with eyewitnesses present for no reason other than walking in the middle of the street.

I think most of the asswipes who jumped on the Brown bandwagon early on have finally realized that he was not a good kid, and now are resorting to the asinine argument that goes something like this:

"Well, no matter if he was a danger, shooting him six times was unjustified"


One shot or a hundred, it does not matter, he posed a threat and the response was warranted.

so, does that mean the box of cigars was not relevant?

I am going to have to say unidentified sources always make me nervous, and this case has been loaded with tons of misinformation. Some of it purpose driven, some of it just rumors reported as fact.

I agree, but there's no faking an orbital eye socket fracture. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the cops are smart enough to not bullshite about that.

OK the main witness Dorian Johnson is covered in neck tattoos. I'm sure there are a few credible people out ther with neck tattoos but I ain't believing anything that comes out their mouth. SORRY!!

I'm not trusting this guy...


or this guy...Dorian Johnson, the so-called key witness

Race doesn't have a DAMN thing to do with this. It's prejudice(prejuding)not race and so fricking be it!!!

I'm sure people like Shabaz will say a) the witness has been paid off, and b) FBD hired a Hollywood make-up artist to make it appear that the officer had been beaten up.

When you have people chanting,

"Who do we want? Wilson!"

"How do we want him?" Dead!".......

Do you think the facts really matter?

or a liar that says they know when they don't.

unidentified sources are very problematic. you have to listen to them but you should always discount them.

I'm sure his pig buddy did it to him in order to help the cop's narrative!

I hear you. That is why we must wait until the official evidence comes out before tearing shite up and passing judgement.

I know...the source is probably a cop. But the facial fracture is a verifiable fact. It leads me to believe with great certainty Wilson's face was fractured. We don't know the whole story but it's not like a cop is stupid enough to try to put forth a narrative like that that if his face wasn't really fricked up. There will be x-rays, testimony of doctors, nurses, etc.
