Ferguson, Missouri (KMOV.com) – What started as a peaceful prayer vigil Saturday evening to remember a young man gunned down by police, has escalated into full scale riots and looting in Ferguson, Missouri.

Angry mobs have smashed windows, set fires and looted businesses as a massive showing of police, some wearing riot gear have moved into the area along West Florissant just south of 270.

Police are also responding to reports of shootings throughout the area. At one point, windows of a News 4 live truck were smashed out by the angry crowd.

“The cops are in the wrong here...”

This riot has NOTHING to do with that incident, these rioters are in the wrong.

I’ll bet that they want the officer identified-how else can they take revenge?

Have to believe some that are retweeting the rumor are media people trying to get people riled and cause bloodshed.

I doubt he said any such thing but they sure went out of their way to prove the statement true.

He’s probably humming that new smash tune, “No justice, no peace”.

By the looks of that guy, he's never done anything like this before...

BTW, nice coordinated attire with the blue hat and blue shoes coordinated. His tattoo's surely will be recognized by the public and because of previous arrests and I'm certain he'll be brought to justice soon. // sarc

It appears that there isn’t much left to steal. He should sue.
