CLAYTON, Mo. — The St. Louis County police have arrested a suspect in connection with the shooting of two police officers outside the Ferguson Police Department early Thursday morning, a police spokesman said Sunday.

The police and prosecutors have scheduled a news conference later Sunday to announce the arrest.

The two officers — one from the county police and the other from the nearby Webster Groves department — were standing shoulder to shoulder as part of a protective line facing demonstrators across the street from the police station. At least three gunshots came from a distance behind the demonstrators, as much as 125 yards away, the authorities said.

Ferguson is only about 250 miles from Amana Iowa. It was probably an agitator from there.

The “journalists” at CNN must be deeply sadden to hear this creep was a local and NOT an outside agitator.

A reporter just asked point blank for the race of the suspect and yes he is an African American.

Jeffery is black.
Jeffry was a protester and may have been in conflict with other protesters indicating these natives cannot even get along with each other.

...indicating these natives cannot even get along with each other.

Most murders of black are committed by other blacks. They often don't get along.

I don't buy it, though. He shoots twice and the hated white cops are hit? You can bet they were his target.

Does anyone believe a black jury in that area will ever convict this creep?
