From Ferguson Today... State troopers and St. Louis city and county officers warned the roughly 150 demonstrators who gathered in a nearby suburb to stay out of the road as they protested last months shooting of Michael Brown, a black, unarmed 18-year-old, by a white officer. There were nearly as many officers as demonstrators. The crowd included about 20 union workers who operate public transit buses and trains for the regions Metro system. Were out here to show support, said Antoin Johnson, 30. We feel that an injustice has been done. Highway Patrol Sgt. Al Nothum said that 35 people were arrested, most on charges of unlawful assembly.
