Hey Z.. wannabe "Independent Citizen Journalist" ... You fuckin' blew it!!

If you had simply turned your phone cam on when you SAW the "Kids" who apparently caused the window to break itself, instead of DECIDING to protect your own pussy scared ass from possible retaliation (as a bitch snitch getting stitches).. you just MIGHT have scooped evidence of a serious crime (Smash and grab burglary (felony).. theft of cash register).

Even FAILING that if you simply stuck to reporting what you actually saw, instead of filtering your report to suit your "perception" warped by your own (obvious) biases you might at least of remained a resonable citizen and reliable eye witness.

Instead.. you are a dishonest willfully ignorant POS with an agenda, who presents a pathetic puerile personality to anybody who tunes into your stream or reads your moronic tweets.

Gnomesayin?

Police: Man shot near Ferguson protest critically injured
By JIM SALTER and JIM SUHR
Associated Press

FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) - A man who opened fire on officers in Ferguson, Missouri, on the one-year anniversary of Michael Brown's death was critically wounded when the officers shot back, St. Louis County's police chief said early Monday.

Chief Jon Belmar said at a news conference that officers had been tracking the man, who they believed was armed, during a protest marking the death of Brown, the black, unarmed 18-year-old whose killing by a white Ferguson police officer touched off a national "Black Lives Matter" movement.

The man approached the officers, who were in an unmarked police van, and opened fire, Belmar said. The officers returned fire from inside the vehicle and then pursued the man on foot when he ran.

The man again fired on the officers, the chief said, and all four officers fired back. He was struck and fell.

The man was taken to a hospital, where Belmar said he was in "critical, unstable" condition. Authorities didn't immediately release the identities of anyone involved, but Tyrone Harris told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch the injured man was his son, Tyrone Harris Jr.

The elder Harris told the newspaper shortly after 3 a.m. that his son had just gotten out of surgery.

None of the officers was seriously injured. All four have been put on standard administrative leave. They were not wearing body cameras, Belmar said.

The shooting happened shortly after what the chief called "an exchange of gunfire between two groups" rang out around 11:15 p.m. Sunday while protesters were gathered on West Florissant Avenue, a business zone that saw rioting and looting last year after Brown's killing. The shots sent protesters and reporters running for cover.

The chief said an estimated six shooters unleashed a "remarkable" amount of gunfire over about 45 seconds.

Belmar waved off any notion that the people with the weapons were part of the protest.

"They were criminals. They weren't protesters," he said.

The man who fired on officers had a semi-automatic 9MM gun that was stolen last year from Cape Girardeau, Missouri, according to the chief.

"There is a small group of people out there that are intent on making sure that peace doesn't prevail," he said. "There are a lot of emotions. I get it. But we can't sustain this as we move forward."

Officer-involved shooting in Ferguson
Sam Clancy, KSDK 5:13 a.m. CDT August 10, 2015

FERGUSON, Mo. - With protesters and officers facing off in the Ferguson night, multiple shots rang out, forcing protesters, live-streamers and officers to take cover.

After a Sunday of peaceful marches and protests, storms moved through the St. Louis area, sending many protesters heading for cover from the rain, but just after 11 p.m., they were heading for cover from something else.

Multiple shots were fired, and as a result, one man was transported to a hospital with gunshot wounds from the 9100 block of West Florissant Avenue, where police believe the shooting occurred.

St. Louis County police have confirmed that an officer was involved in a shooting after coming under heavy fire.

St. Louis County Police Department tweeted out the following pictures of two unmarked police vehicles struck by gunfire.

A friend of Michael Brown is in a 'critical, unstable condition' after being shot by police when he used a stolen handgun to fire on officers during a protest to mark the one-year anniversary of the 18-year-old's controversial death.

St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said that plainclothes officers were tracking the man at around 11:15 pm, while several hundred people gathered on West Florissant Street to take part in the demonstration.

He added that the man approached the officers, who were in an unmarked police car and opened fire. The officers returned fire from inside the vehicle. They then pursued the man on foot. The chief said the man again fired on the officers and all four fired back.

The suspect has been identified as 18-year-old Tyrone Harris Junior by his father, who revealed that his son was a 'real close' school friend of the late Michael Brown. 'We think there's a lot more to this than what's being said,' Harris Senior was quoted as saying in local media reports.

Footage shot by protester Tony Rice, who was live-tweeting near a McDonald's under the Twitter name @search4swag, showed a black man lying face down on the floor with his hands cuffed behind his back and a large blood stain on his torso. Two police officers can be seen standing over him with their guns drawn but do not assist him.

Rice, who was arrested for filming the footage, can be heard saying to the officers repeatedly: 'Please give him some help! He's bleeding out man, please give him some help.'

Speaking at a press conference in the early hours of Monday morning, Belmar said that plainclothes officers had been tracking the man, who they believed was armed, during the protests when he spotted them and opened fire.

The officers returned fire from inside the vehicle. They then pursued the man on foot. The chief said the man once again fired on the officers, with all four continuing to fire back.

Shortly afterwards the suspect was identified as 18-year-old Tyrone Harris Junior by his father, the St Louis Post Dispatch reported.

Harris said shortly after 3 a.m. local time that his son had just left emergency surgery, adding that he'd recently graduated from Normandy High School, Missouri - the same school Michael Brown had attened,.

Describing their relationship, Mr Harris said his son and the late 18-year-old had been 'real close', adding: 'We think there's a lot more to this than what's being said.'

Tensions have been high in Ferguson following a second bout of looting.

At least 12 shots were fired and the crowd scattered and sped off in cars.
