Protesters return to Ferguson for latest march
7/10/2017 13:03
Protesters who have been demonstrating in the wake of a white former St. Louis police officer's acquittal in a black suspect's shooting death took to the streets of Ferguson in their latest march.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that several dozen people marched on West Florissant Avenue on Friday night, chanting and carrying "Black Lives Matter" signs. The scene was reminiscent of some of the protests that followed the fatal 2014 police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, a St. Louis suburb.
The group stopped outside the Ferguson Market and later headed to the Ferguson police headquarters on South Florissant Road, where some shouted at officers who stood guard outside.
No arrests were reported.
