A 29-year-old activist who rose to prominence in the protests following the police killing of Michael Brown was found dead in a burning car in a St. Louis suburb, according to police.
Upon putting out the fire, police found Seals inside the vehicle. He had suffered a gunshot wound, police said. McGuire declined to release further details, pending an ongoing investigation.
Seals' Twitter bio said he was a "Businessman, Revolutionary, Activist, Unapologetically BLACK, Afrikan in AmeriKKKa, Fighter, Leader."
Describing Seals as a factory line worker and hip-hop musician, The St. Louis American reported he was highly vocal during the Ferguson protests that followed Brown's death in August 2014.
When a grand jury declined to indict Officer Darren Wilson in Brown's killing, it was Seals seen in video footage and photos embracing Brown's distraught mother, Lesley McSpadden, as Brown's stepfather angrily told the crowd, "Burn this bitch down."

Live like a thug, die like a thug.
Killing people in their car and burning the car is a specific MO that sends a message to the people in the neighborhood. The victim was probably either talking to the police or was somehow seen as cooperating against the gangs.
Sounds like Obama's former spiritual adviser, Jeremiah "GD-America" Wright.
From all the reports I have read this sounds like a classic case of suicide.
According to the CNN article he wasn’t a fan of BLM, and opposed Dems after the Fugerson riots. I’m willing to bet a BLM type might have been the one responsible, in which case the story will quickly disappear.
I think it is just a clean up crew taking care of some one who knew to much about who ever paid for the Ferguson riots to happen....IE a representative of George Soros.
“Sew the wind, reap the tornado.”
Tis a pity
My tears are fallin
Who is Obama sending to the funeral if he can’t make it.
Several people have died under mysterious circumstances in the aftermath of the Ferguson riots.
Hey! It’s only “taking out the trash” to the burn pit. No pit this time only a car.
Can’t say that I’m sorry for him for he was nothing more than a large piece of trash.
Died of natural causes, iow.
Or not sharing the money he was making being an “activist”.
