Car hits protester in Ferguson, shots ring out

It’s how Michael Brown lived. It’s how he would have wanted to be commemorated.

Shots were fired shortly after the incident as screaming onlookers surrounded the injured man and others chased the vehicle.

A peaceful commemorative event in Ferguson, the Missouri town where police officer Darren Wilson shot the 18-year-old Brown dead in 2014, erupted in gunfire after a auto hit a protester who ventured into the street, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper reported.

On late Tuesday, which was the 2 year anniversary of Mike Brown’s death, a young man was hit by a vehicle at a protest in Ferguson.

It happened after a police officer ordered a small group of protesters to clear the street as they marched downtown from the site of Brown’s shooting on August 9, 2014, according to the Associate Press. News media initially reported that witnesses and activists claimed that Brown had his hands up and was shot while running away. A St. Louis County grand jury and an investigation by the Department of Justice found that Wilson was justified in shooting Michael Brown.

The killing spurred national attention over race and policing, as well as weeks of demonstrations and violence in Ferguson.

The man was reported to be badly injured, and was taken by a private auto to a hospital, Cowan told The Chicago Tribune. Reports state that by 10 p.m. the commotion was settled, and everyone had left.

Later Tuesday, a crowd of a few dozen protesters marched from Canfield Drive to a busy intersection that’s been the site of protests before. Darren Wilson resigned from the police force in November, 2014. Brown’s father said the shooting “opened the eyes of the world”. The federal agency and the city agreed in 2016 to make sweeping changes. This color is attractive.
