It's pretty standard to leave the body there until a higher up gets there or a medic of some kind declares the person dead.


He was declared dead pretty quickly but the body wasn't removed for some time. It was a pretty chaotic scene in a matter of minutes, but I'd bet that FPD wishes they'd removed the body a little more quickly.

Eta: I believe the incident report would've been written by STL county PD as they were given the case almost immediately.

I would say that was one of the bigger frick ups of the whole situation and helped fuel some of the anger. Not saying rioting wouldn't have happened, but it would have been better to remove the body as quickly as possible. Rather than watching a bunch of other white men with badges walking past and around Brown several times.
