A tweet by St. Louis Post-Dispatch crime reporter Christine Byers dropped a bombshell in the ongoing reporting on the shooting of unarmed 18 year old Michael Brown by a Ferguson, Missouri police officer.

“Police sources tell me more than a dozen witnesses have corroborated cop’s version of events in shooting Ferguson.”

As of this writing Byers has added nothing to that stunning revelation since tweeting her report at 9:30 p.m. CDT on Monday.

The Washington Post reported earlier Monday the FBI and prosecutors had interviewed over 200 people about the case including several who had not spoken to local investigators.
