Andrew Brown autopsy shows he was shot five times, attorneys say

Details regarding the shooting from police authorities continue to remain scarce, though Brown had a 180-page rap sheet that dates back to May 1988

Attorneys for the family of Andrew Brown, a black man whom police shot and killed during a drug warrant arrest on Wednesday, said an autopsy concluded he was hit five times before he succumbed to his wounds.

The legal team hired an independent pathologist to conduct an autopsy, which found that Brown was shot five times, including twice on the arm and once in the back of the head, the team said at a Tuesday press briefing. The round that struck Brown’s skull was purportedly the one that killed him, and the other two shots were not mapped out by the lawyers.
