NY Times ^ | 3/15/15 | MANNY FERNANDEZ

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.

dittos on that one.
Right now they are down playing Jeffrey’s involvement with the protesters.
BS.
Jeffery is a 20 yo POS had warrants out on him and he has now reached his end.

You don’t have to be a sharp shooter to hit a target from 125 yds away with a scoped rifle. This should be interesting. My guess is a white Marxist or Socialist.

How did Jeffrey shoot that pistol with his hands up and trying to surrender to police? Big mystery.

125 yds with a.40 pistol? That is a guy who spent a lot of time at the gun range.

More racism in Ferguson PD. The black population is comprised of 67.4% black but their cop shooter arrests are 100% blacks.

Maybe he read one of Elmer Keith’s books on long range shooting.

OH WAIT! That requires reading, and comprehension!

Just heard CNN interview some self-proclaimed “Bishop” that visited the shooter poor Jeffie say(paraphrase) that the reward was not the best way to go and it would have been better if the community would have been involved in the arrest....
HaaaaHAAAA...Sorry MrSelfproclaimedBishop money talks and so sorry to say its the only thing that brings out “facts” in your hood.

Jeffery was paid....If he shot the gun he was a pretty good shot....where did he learn that???
Who is Jeffery and who’s driving the red car

So, we have a 20 year old guy (apparently a non-resident of Ferguson,with a criminal record, surprise, surprise) with a possibly illegally possessed handgun, allegedly riding in a car, sees someone he was having a dispute with, and just impulsively decides to settle the dispute with gunfire - with dozens of police officers standing right there

You point the gun, pull trigger and the bullet hits somewhere. There were so many people crowded together at the protest it was hard to miss hitting someone.

He still managed to miss with most of his shots
