This guy should get the award too. The Washington Post

St Louis 10/9/14  Though some protesters and witnesses claimed Vonderrit D. Myers, who died at the scene Wednesday night, was unarmed just as Brown was, the incident report describes an intense struggle and exchange of gunfire between Myers and a 32-year-old officer off-duty and working for a private security company. The report said the officer withheld gunfire until Myers shot at him.“The officer wanted to be certain what the suspect had was a gun, and did not immediately fire at the suspect,” the report said. “The suspect then turned toward the officer, pointed the gun at the officer and fired at least three rounds.”The suspect’s 9mm handgun was recovered at the scene. The gun was reported stolen two weeks ago.“Three projectiles” were recovered going toward the officer, down the hill, with ballistic evidence, a bullet in a vehicle, located behind the officer,” the report said.

Court records show that Myers was wearing an ankle monitor and was facing a felony weapons charge and a misdemeanor charge for resisting arrest. He had pleaded not guilty to both charges and was scheduled for trial Nov. 17.
