Possible audio recording of Michael Brown shooting surfaces


It is possible a recording of the actual shots fired at Michael Brown may have just surfaced.

According to CNN, an unidentified man, who has since been interviewed by the FBI, may have inadvertently  recorded the incident in which Michael Brown was shot by Officer Darren Wilson earlier this month.

The most interesting aspect of the short recording is what appears to be two separate, distinct sets gunfire from Officer Darren Wilson's weapon.

From CNN:

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.

The man who recorded the shooting was talking to someone on video chat when the sounds of gunfire erupted in the background. The Daily Mail added:

Lopa Blumenthal, the attorney for the unidentified man who recorded the alleged gunfire nearby said that she believed the audio shows, if it is authentic, that Officer Wilson had a clear 'point of contemplation' while pulling the trigger and aiming at Brown."
