A attorney who in specializes in self-defense told me that of the 300 clients who said something to the police before talking to him, only two managed to NOT hurt their case.  Those two didn't help their case, they just didn't hurt it any.  If you are involved in a shooting, call the police, physically cooperate with them, but don't say anything except you want to call your attorney.
