FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) (http://news.yahoo.com/vandalism-looting-vigil-missouri-man-043816425.html) — The FBI said it opened an investigation Monday into the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by police in suburban St. Louis, a day after tension surrounding the case erupted in unrest following a candlelight vigil for the teen.

Questions loomed over the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who police said was unarmed and shot multiple times Saturday after an altercation with an officer in Ferguson. It's unclear whether Brown or a man he was with was involved in the alleged scuffle, and authorities have been vague about what led an officer to open fire.

But Dorian Johnson told WALB-TV that he and Brown were walking home from a convenience store when a police officer told them to get out of the street and onto the sidewalk. Johnson said they kept walking, which caused the officer to confront them from his car and then outside his car.

Johnson said the officer fired, and he and Brown were scared and ran away.

"He shot again, and once my friend felt that shot, he turned around and put his hands in the air and he started to get down," Johnson said. "But the officer still approached with his weapon drawn and fired several more shots."

"We wasn't causing harm to nobody. We had no weapons on us at all," Johnson told the television station.

The St. Louis County Police Department, which is leading the investigation, refused to discuss Johnson's remarks, citing the ongoing investigation. But County Police Chief Jon Belmar has previously said that an officer encountered Brown and another man outside an apartment complex in Ferguson, and that one of the men pushed the officer into his squad car and they struggled before the shooting.

The FBI is looking into possible civil rights violations arising from the shooting, said Cheryl Mimura, a spokeswoman for the FBI's St. Louis field office. But she noted that the FBI would be investigating such a shooting regardless of the public attention surrounding it.

Nearly three dozen people were arrested after tensions around the case following a candlelight vigil Sunday night, as crowds looted and burned stores, vandalized vehicles and taunted officers who tried to block access to parts of the city.

Deanel Trout, a 14-year resident of Ferguson, said he was convinced the troublemakers were largely from outside Ferguson and that they had used Brown's death and the vigil as an opportunity to steal.

"Most came here for a peaceful protest but it takes one bad apple to spoil the bunch. ... I can understand the anger and unrest but I can't understand the violence and looting," Trout, 53, said.

St. Louis County police spokesman Brian Schellman said 32 people were arrested for various infractions, including assault, burglary and theft. Schellman said two officers suffered minor injuries and that there were no reports of civilians hurt.

Several businesses were looted, including a check-cashing store, a boutique and a small grocery store. People took items from a sporting goods store and a cellphone retailer, and carted rims away from a tire store. Some climbed atop police cars as the officers with riot shields and batons stood stoic nearby, trying to restrict access to the most seriously affected areas.

There no immediate reports of serious injuries. Pat Washington, a spokeswoman for St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley, said tear gas had been used.

"The small group of people are creating a huge mess," Mayor James Knowles said. "Contributing to the unrest that is going on is not going to help. ... We're only hurting ourselves, only hurting our community, hurting our neighbors."

Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson told KSDK-TV that there's no video footage of the shooting from the apartment complex, or from any police cruiser dashboard cameras or body-worn cameras that the department recently bought but hasn't yet put to use.

Jackson said the second person has not been arrested or charged and it wasn't clear if he was armed.

Jackson said blood samples were taken from Brown and the officer who shot him. Toxicology tests can take weeks to complete.

Earlier Sunday, a few hundred protesters gathered outside Ferguson Police headquarters. Some marched into an adjacent police building chanting "Don't shoot me" while holding their hands in the air. Officers stood at the top of a staircase, but didn't use force; the crowd eventually left. A similar protest that attracted about 250 people was held Monday morning.

Brown's mother, Lesley McSpadden, said she didn't understand why police didn't subdue her high school graduate son with a club or stun gun, and that the officer involved should be fired and prosecuted.

"I would like to see him go to jail with the death penalty," she said, fighting back tears.

The killing drew criticism from some civil rights leaders, who referred to the 2012 racially charged shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin by a Florida neighborhood watch organizer who was acquitted of murder charges.

Brown's family planned to speak further at a Monday afternoon news conference with their attorney, Benjamin Crump, who also represented Martin's family.

"We're outraged because yet again a young African-American man has been killed by law enforcement," said John Gaskin, who serves on both the St. Louis County and national boards of directors for the NAACP.

Ferguson's population of about 21,000 people is almost 70 percent black. The race of the officer has not been disclosed. He has been placed on paid administrative leave.

They are just a bunch of dumb asses. The only reason they get welfare is they are bussed to the polls every election day and told how to vote. If they weren't captive voters nobody would give a rat's ass about them. That's the truth. They have to provide some kind of utility for someone. In the old days it was slave labor. Today it's voting for food and shelter. They just traded one plantation for another and deep down they know it. It's why they are pissed. Frustrated slaves.

Oh I can see people being upset over a shooting. The thing is, there are communities that are just a powder keg waiting to go off. Once it's set off then it snowballs into rioting and looting. Look at the LA riots. Looting to loot.

I think a lot of people are on their one last nerve. It doesn't matter what race they are. Heck a lot of cops are on their last nerve. They deal with society's dregs and slowly inside the frustration slowly builds and you have a walking pressure cooker. Then something happens where it just blows. Once a person goes into the rage stage they just go crazy. A riot is just masses of people feeding on the same rage and because it's in large numbers they feel safe to act out in the worst ways possible.

The riot takes on a life of it's own like a big destructive blob. People let out their pent up rage at sporting events. We all have sat next to the guy who's always yelling and would punch you in the face if you told him his team sucked and to shut the fuck up. Get a stadium full of these assholes and things happen.

I'm pretty sure the "savages" comment is directed at the low lifes who used this incident as a reason to destroy and loot their community. And I know, somebody is gonna say "Well that's all they can do is tear some shit up real good and steal stuff." Ok, that sounds like a savage to me. Or is thievery and destructification now an acceptable form of civil disobedience? Cause I'm all for getting me some free TVs and a couple pallets full of beer. Yes, I will be looting Sam's Club.

And if it turns out that a cop shot an unarmed kid for no reason then said cop should swing from the highest tree. End of story.

There will be rioting that makes the Martin Luther King shooting riots look like nothing. That should be entertaining. These people have the resources to save up some extra food in case of an emergency. Think they have done so? Call it Sky Daddy or nature.

Looting with an 18 wheeler? That would have to be one Hell of an organized riot to pull that off.

My friend Billy used to just walk in to the beer distributor's warehouse late at night and walk out the door with a case of it, and walk down the railroad tracks. No freight trains ran at night on that line, and it was nowhere near the Amtrak corridor, so it was safe to walk the tracks all the way home. But I never believed he could actually get away with that shit until I watched him do it. Apparently the warehouse had very few people on duty during graveyard shift and none of them worked anywhere near the big loading bay door... which naturally was open in the middle of the summer because the warehouse had no A/C.

It's all about organization. What do you think gangs and the mafia are all about? You can steal more that way. You could name the truck Big Billy. Doing what Billy did but on a bigger scale. Naw if the truck is locked into the dock and you can drive a fork lift well, you could have a 52 foot trailer loaded pretty quick by yourself. Tell the people at the dock an angry mob is coming. Saving some corporate inventory ain't worth bodily harm or their lives. They will bolt and then it's just you. Mr. Forklift is all you need. Heck a real hot shot driver could have her loaded in 20 minutes.

A lot of people watch that movie nowdays and fail to understand why it was such a big deal to get crappy assed Coors beer across state lines.

The Coors family have always been right wing moronic assholes, and they were union-busting greedy fucks before the Reagan/BCE/corporate media brainwashing era that convinced half the country that unions were "evil". Consequently, the Teamsters wouldn't haul the shit, and it wasn't possible to transport their pisswater easily, even to the states that weren't boycotting them outright.

You could buy it on the West Coast, but my dad (Machinist Union) wouldn't allow it in the house. And the company he worked for wouldn't make Coors cans.

Coors was like a self-contained empire. My dad's company tried to do work with them and were locked out. They had a substantial porcelain operation that made a lot of things including the nose cones for nuclear warheads. My neighbor in Denver worked for Coors power.

The Chines have an old saying. You can't wrap fire with paper. It doesn't matter what the laws are. Whoever shits the biggest runs things. Laws are only as good as the enforcement is. That's politics in a nutshell.

I think its's exactly this shoot from the hip attitude that is at the core of all of US political issues and ongoing ineptitude.

Everything seems to be able to be boiled down to it's lowest common denominator, be it Obamacare is nothing but socialism or that any form of gun control or regulation of automatic weapons is a form of oppression.

There is no room for an actual discussion...a shame

Russell Brand has all political sophistication of an earnest 16 year old telling you how they are going to change the world because it's not fair.

I dunno, his observations about this reporting are pretty spot on. I give him credit for actually having an ongoing interest in making soem difference...he could just be silent.

I was pulled over in Florida by a cop that wasn't too far off the mark from Buford T Justice. LOL! I'm like going,"This isn't real. This has to be a dream or something."

I had that same experience in southern georgia... Turner County.. FUCK that place! They're known for pulling over out of state tags. No one will ever go back to that shithole to fight it.

A lot of people watch that movie nowdays and fail to understand why it was such a big deal to get crappy assed Coors beer across state lines.

The Coors family have always been right wing moronic assholes, and they were union-busting greedy fucks before the Reagan/BCE/corporate media brainwashing era that convinced half the country that unions were "evil". Consequently, the Teamsters wouldn't haul the shit, and it wasn't possible to transport their pisswater easily, even to the states that weren't boycotting them outright.

You could buy it on the West Coast, but my dad (Machinist Union) wouldn't allow it in the house. And the company he worked for wouldn't make Coors cans.

The good old days before corporate lies controlled the narrative of goddamn near everything..... :(

I wouldn't allow Coors mainly because it's fucking carbonated urine...

Why there is no discussion is the political spectrum in the US is polarized. Why there is no discussion on gun control is the people who want guns don't trust the other side. They think they want to take them all away. Obamacare was nothing more than bought off politicians ramming legislation through that benefits large corporations. They were in a hurry to ram it through and didn't want any discussion. Nancy Pelosi admitted it when she said, "What have to pass it to see what's in it."

The US was designed originally to be ran by the people. Today multinational corporations have bought the two party political system. They use their media and various organization to keep both sides of the political spectrum polarized. The romans called it divide and conquer. The average American is frustrated watching the large corporations get special treatment while they get stuck with the bill for all the debt being ran up.

In short the US Government has been infiltrated and the average citizen has been pretty much locked out. You have a choice of what bought off politician to vote for. So nothing is going to change until the corporate hold on the political system is broken. I don't think it's unique to the US. Other countries have the same problem.

Actually, the stench coming out of that brewery is far worse than that. It smells like something died in there, as you drive by on the back road from Golden into Wheat Ridge (west of Denver).

Living about a mile away from the (now sadly defunct) Olympia Brewery, I know that a brewery that makes crappy beer can still generate good smell of hops, barley, and yeast. Kinda miss it actually.... that and the loud ass 8:00 AM whistle that let me know I was late for work.

The Budweiser brewery in Van Nuys is about a mile west of here. The wind usually blows from west to east here so I smell it on a regular basis. On a hot day with a small breeze that smell comes through the swamp cooler on the roof into every room of the house. Sometimes it's kind of pleasant but sometimes it smells like puke. There's a Farmer Johns meat proccessing plant just south of downtown L A that reeks of burning pig hair in the morning. I'm just glad I can't smell that from here.

I remember building a big pyramid out of Olympia beer cans when I was 16 and then proceeded to puke what was in all those empties. The tum water got me!

Yeah, I toured that one as a kid, when they had the "Busch Gardens" theme park built around it, and the brewery tour was just another amusement park ride. Always thought it was kinda weird that a business selling alcohol would have a Disneyland wannabe park for kids built around it.

It is? About 10 years ago (or so) I used to live right up the street from that brewery. The only problemo I ever had living that close was the endless noise from the trains that never stopped running. Maybe that smell was just me.

ABC viewers, XBMC users, people who liked to post Daily Show/Colbert/South Park clips, etc. Farcebook has done a good job of pissing people off just by Zuckerfuck being a sellout douche who now sells your personal information to the government and then uses the money to support KKKoch Brothers pro Keystone Death Pipe propaganda.

It's all a scam. The powerful keep things like this going so we focus on it while they do what they want while we aren't looking. If you think Fox, CNN, Drudge, MSNBC, are telling you the truth you are a fool. It's all about ratings!

I wonder is ANYBODY truly cares about the death of Michael Brown.

And just for the record, as a former union employee that lost his job because the union had to protect the lazy, useless shop stewards, I got news for you. Unions are businesses just like Ford and GM. They make profit decisions all the time and piss on the underlings just like big business.

Wait until a computer glitch, a solar flair, or an EMP strike from an enemy destroys the electronic food stamp distribution system. There will be rioting that makes the Martin Luther King shooting riots look like nothing. That should be entertaining. These people have the resources to save up some extra food in case of an emergency. Think they have done so? Call it Sky Daddy or nature. On this rock, the weak are culled time to time and the fittest survive. It will probably be the amish who last.

Honestly, the thought of some kind of massive disaster that knocks out the power grids and puts us back into the Dark Ages, technologically, is a scary thing. Because in an "every man for himself" scenario, it's gonna end up being whoever is the most well-armed will get ample supplies of food, water, etc. I have little faith that in such a scenario people would pull together and help each other. Shit, we can barely be bothered to do that NOW.
