Ferguson Police release video of ‘suspect with a gun’ fron Monday’s shooting

Demonstrations around the region had long been planned to mark the anniversary. An additional 22 people were arrested Monday night and early Tuesday after police used pepper spray to clear West Florissant Avenue in Ferguson. The shooting happened as protesters nearby were marking the anniversary of the shooting death of Michael Brown, who was killed by a white police officer.

Police have removed two bodies from a Hialeah home, Tuesday morning.

At the Sunday night demonstration, tensions escalated after several hundred people gathered in the street, ignoring repeated warnings to get to the sidewalk or face arrest.

Both the St. Louis County police chief, Jon Belmar, and County Executive Steve Senger say the Oath Keepers aren’t welcome in Ferguson.

The state of emergency was still in effect on Tuesday but no major protests were reported. Miller added that the latest protests were dying down without much being accomplished.

Brown’s death prompted greater scrutiny of racial bias within the US criminal justice system.

By 1 a.m., the crowd and police presence along West Florissant had been begun to diminish.

Harris again fired on the officers, Belmar said, and all four officers fired back.

The deadly capturing of Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old, by a white police officer, Darren Wilson, final August sparked typically violent clashes between protesters and police, unfolding earlier than the nation on reside tv.

The St Louis County Police Department said the footage, lasting 13 seconds, showed Harris pulling a gun after shots were fired.

Tyrone Harris, 18, was shot by police after allegedly opening fire in the chaos in this suburb of St Louis, Missouri.

Harris was in critical condition on Monday at a St. Louis hospital.

After police shot a young man who has been accused of firing at police during protests in Ferguson, Mo., on Sunday, the St. Louis County Police released a video Tuesday to demonstrate that the suspect was armed.

Police on Tuesday released a video of that shooting that they said showed the teen, Tyrone Harris, drawing a pistol from his trousers.

Tyrone Harris Sr. declined to discuss the shooting or his son’s condition, citing the advice of his attorney, whom he would not identify.

On Monday night, the police presence was far greater. Officers lined several blocks of West Florissant. Unlike Sunday, there was no gunfire, no injuries and no reports of looting or property damage.

More than 20 people were arrested.

According to police, Harris opened fire on an unmarked police vehicle from which undercover cops were watching the rally. They took no action, and the rock-throwing stopped.

The far-right anti-government activist group largely comprises past and present military personnel, first responders and law enforcement personnel.

Two armored personnel carriers were also spotted on the street in Ferguson.

But Senger pointed out that until he and the county prosecuting attorney can find a way to keep the Oath Keepers out of Ferguson, they can still walk around the protests with their guns.

Brian Fletcher, a former mayor of Ferguson now on the city council, said he believed that violence the city has experienced over the past year was coming to an end.
