A new video has surfaced showing the reaction of two Ferguson witnesses who saw the moments of Michael Brown being fatally shot and killed.
Michael Brown was an unarmed Black teenager who was shot and killed by white police officer, Darren Wilson, in Ferguson, MO.

The video, which could be an important part of evidence for the investigation, aired on CNN showing two men near their truck. They were about 50-feet away from the shooting.
Though some of the audio is unclear, you can hear one man saying “He had his f**king hands up.”

The men, who were doing construction work nearby, described what they saw to CNN.
One worker said that he heard two gunshots.
“The cop didn’t say get on the ground,” the witness said. “He just kept shooting.”
He also described the gruesome scene saying Brown had his hands up and even saw brains coming out of Brown’s head.
The second man told CNN that he saw Brown running away and the officer was chasing him.
In addition, he also saw the officer fire a shot at Brown, whose back was turned. Neither man saw how the confrontation started.
The Ferguson witnesses have remained anonymous. So it is unclear whether these are the same witnesses that spoke with the St. Louis patch.
