Ferguson Anniversary Ends with Police Shooting

Peaceful protests marking the first anniversary of the killing of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen fatally shot by a white police officer last summer, turned chaotic early Monday as multiple gunshots shook Ferguson, Missouri, leaving two people wounded in separate incidents, according to Reuters. 

A man is in critical condition after exchanging fire with plainclothes officers, St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar told reporters, according to NBC News. He was later identified as 18-year old Tyrone Harris Jr. Harris’ father said the teenager had been close to Michael Brown, the St. Louis Post Dispatch reported.
