jay wendell, there seems to be a difference of opinion between captain johnson and the ferguson police chief, thomason, as to why the ferguson police department released the video of michael brown allegedly robbing this convenience store, stealing some cigars. listen to what ron johnson told our don lemon just a little while ago. >> on their initial contact, it was simply that he was coming from a case, saw two men walking down the street blocking traffic. and he pulled up and asked them to get on to the sidewalk. and as as he passed them, that's when he might have seen the evidence and connected it. but his initial contact was strictly pedestrian. >> reporter: what do you mean seen the evidence? >> there was a broadcast that went out about a stealing and there were cigars stolen, a couple boxes of cigars. >> so that was the police chief of ferguson, thomas jackson, saying that once the police officer stopped michael brown and he saw some cigars, then he began to think, well, maybe he was involved in that alleged robbery as opposed to earlier. we didn't have the clip there in ron johnson, the captai
