CLAYTON, MO – Several people were shot in Ferguson Sunday night after a peaceful march to mark the anniversary of Michael Brown’s death. Now, St. Louis County officials are declaring a State of Emergency.
Two people were shot in a drive-by shooting Sunday night at the Canfield-Green Apartments. Another person fire on officers in Ferguson on West Florissant. Police returned fire, critically injuring the suspect.
Organizers are calling today “Moral Monday.” It is a day of planned civil disobedience. They have more events planned for the remainder of the day. In the past the day of civil disobedience has included blocking highways and shutting down big businesses across St. Louis County.
So far the protests have been peaceful. But there have been several arrests after marchers broke a police barricade at the Thomas Eagleton Federal Courthouse in downtown St. Louis.
