Violence continues overnight in Ferguson
Tuesday, August 19, 2014
Violence erupted in Ferguson, Mo., again last night, with two people shot, and at least 31 arrested, in continuing protests, following the police shooting death of unarmed, 18-year-old Michael Brown, on Aug. 9. Two alleged arson fires were also reported...one at a local business, the other, at an unoccupied residence. Despite the fact that, yesterday, Governor Jay Nixon had lifted the midnight-to-5 a.m. curfew issued on Saturday, peaceful protests descended into chaos around 11 p.m.
