Ferguson Police Break Up Ugly Brawl Involving Michael Brown's Mother, Grandmother and Cousin
American Thinker ^ | October 24, 2014 | M. Catharine Evans

A 911 call went out Saturday in Ferguson, Missouri where Michael Brown’s mother Lesley McSpadden was allegedly involved in a violent brawl with her dead son’s grandmother and cousin. According to a Fox affiliate, the fight started a few blocks from the street where Brown was shot and killed on August 9. The altercation allegedly ensued from a dispute about who had the right to sell Mike Brown merchandise.

From Fox2Now:

Police sources tell us Brown`s Grandmother, Pearlie Gordon, along with Brown`s Cousin Tony Petty, were selling t-shirts and other Michael Brown merchandise.

A police report describes a car pulling up and several people getting out. One of those people, was reported to be Michael Brown`s Mom, Lesley McSpadden. A witness described McSpadden yelling ‘You can`t sell this s%$&” One of the relatives, who was selling, reportedly demanded McSpadden show a document proving she had a patent.

The police report says that`s when an unidentified person with McSpadden assaulted Petty so violently that it resulted in a 911 call. A witness tells Fox 2 that the weapon was a metal pipe or pole. The suspect reportedly struck Petty in the face. Medics then took him to Christian Northeast Hospital. The witness said the assault suspect grabbed merchandise and a box of cash believed to contain about $1,400.

It appears surveillance cameras could have captured the fight and be part of police evidence. Police report no arrests at this time....

I’m sure they set up 509(C)...

What is it with this family and grabbing merchandise?

Let’s see if this gets the same coverage by CNN that the phony “Palin Brawl” got.

From Fox 2 Now: "We reached out to the local Brown family attorney, Anthony D. Gray and he declined to comment."

Too bad the cops didn’t hold back. After all, one wouldn’t want to overreact and use excessive force.
