KTLA reports via CNN Wire:

A man, who asked that his identity not be revealed, lives near the site of the shooting and was close enough to have heard the gunshots, his attorney said. He was speaking to a friend on a video chat service and happened to be recording the conversation at the same time Brown was shot.

In the recording, a quick series of shots can be heard, followed by a pause and then another quick succession of shots. Forensic audio expert Paul Ginsberg analyzed the recording and said he detected at least 10 gunshots -- a cluster of six, followed by four.

"I was very concerned about that pause ... because it's not just the number of gunshots, it's how they're fired," said the man's attorney. "And that has a huge relevance on how this case might finally end up."

    Was not known by the shooting officer before it happened, not relevant.

    Yes it is relevant, because dead person DID know what he had done and more than likely assumed he was going to be arrested for assault and robbery. In his mind this wasn't a jay walking stop at all.

    But the cop thought it was just a jay walking incident, an was blind sided by the ferocity of the attack for a friggin jay walking stop.

    So yeah it is still relevant.

    Is it? Is this the standard procedure to deal with an agitated jay-walker?

    the cop assaulted brown, not the other way around.
