State Senator Protesting Ferguson a Victim of Attempted Carjacking

Saturday, November 22, 2014

By: Todd Beamon

A Missouri state senator and gun-control advocate who has protested police actions in Ferguson surrounding the Michael Brown shooting death said that an armed man tried to carjack her early Saturday in St. Louis.

Jamilah Nasheed, 42, said on Twitter that a gun was pointed at her while getting out of her car in front of her house. The man had demanded her keys to the vehicle, Fox-TV2 reports.

But the man got back into his car and drove away when Nasheed refused to turn over her keys, St. Louis Police told Fox. The incident occurred shortly after midnight.

Nasheed, a Democrat, was elected to the Senate last year after serving in the Missouri House of Representatives since 2007. Throughout her career, she has supported many gun-control measures and voted against a bill that would have allowed state employees to keep firearms in their vehicles, the Daily Caller reports.

I’m not buying their story. I bet she whipped a gun out on him.
