Emergency Declared in Ferguson After Shooting

The police said the man, Tyrone Harris Jr., was among two groups of young people who exchanged gunfire near peaceful protests late Sunday on the first anniversary of the death of Michael Brown

Gunfire on the fringes of demonstrations commemorating Mr. Brown’s death — which set off looting, arson and confrontations with the police last year — unnerved residents and demonstrators over the weekend. [That seems to be the MO for "Black Lives Matter]

Still, there seemed to be agreement among some protest leaders — many of whom were from the region, but others who had come into town to commemorate Mr. Brown — that much of the trouble has been caused by young people with no connection to the demonstrations and who were hanging out along the street. [Not being started by police, but by "unknown agitators," whose job is to, wait for it, agitate. And the evidence indicates that not only was Brown not doing what he was told, but had already committed crimes, and had already committed one, prior to the shooting]
