Protesters took to the streets in Ferguson, Missouri, late Tuesday night and looted a store, according to police, after a fire destroyed one of the memorials dedicated to 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was gunned down by a police officer this summer.
An unruly crowd gathered around 9 p.m. local time Tuesday on Canfield Drive in Ferguson, close to where the memorial site burned down earlier in the day, police said.
The crowd then made its way towards Beauty Town on West Florissant Avenue and began to loot the store. Police arrived at the beauty store quickly and were able to calm down the situation. It was the third time Beauty Town was looted since Brown was killed, police said.

And looting stores remedies a shooting death by ... ?
What do the Ferguson Blacks have against that beauty shop, attacking it the third time? Is it the last business left?
Why aren’t the COPS gunning down these animals? The whole St. Lootus area is about to catch fire.
From what I have seen, they could loot that beauty supply store a thousand times and they would not stop being ugly!
I’m confused...
Did the owner of the beauty supply store set fire to the memorial?
...must be a lot of ugly people in Ferguson...
In my area, beauty shops are about the only businesses left in the hood. Not having to spend money on food and rent leaves lots of money left over for hair and nails.
After the second time, I would have called it quits, and sent bills for damages, um, reparations, to Nixon, Holder, pMSNBC, UN, ...
There were no withholder people involved dear media ... another talking point media ... run with it!
Beauty Town looted three times?....Gotta get a new weave......................
Can Holder account for his whereabouts at the time of the fire?
I'm guessing it's the only one left that's not prepared to shoot looters.
You’ll never get a meaningful answer to that, because it’s the wrong question.
The gibsmedats don’t have anything against the store. They’re looting because they want free stuff. “Beauty Town” apparently has the sort of stuff they want, so they gang up and get it free. It’s what they do. It’s all they know how to do ... for several generations.
Let’s see now...who would have anything to gain by burning it... maybe the Amish?
“Walking through forests of palm tree apartments
Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents
Down by the waterhole
Drunk every Friday
Eating their nuts
Saving their raisins for Sunday.
Lions and tigers
Who wait in the shadows
They’re fast but they’re lazy, and sleep in green meadows
Let’s bungle in the jungle “
- Jethro Tull
My first thought is that agitators started the fire.
Back then, a generation-plus after the Civil War, pre-LBJ, pre-EBT, people had to pay for stuff.
Wait, the cop was white? I had no idea.
Which was a 70% decrease from before he was killed.
