DNC delegate arrested in connection to Ferguson cop left fighting for his life after vicious caught-on-camera attack
NY Post ^ | 8/14/24 | Michael Dorgan

Two new graphic videos were released showing the moment a Ferguson, Missouri, police officer was violently knocked over by a suspect during a Michael Brown protest on Friday – an incident that has left the officer in critical condition.

The protest came just 10 days before the start of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and among those arrested Friday was Keith Rose, a St. Louis alternate delegate to the DNC and a member of the City of St. Louis’ Civilian Oversight Board which reviews allegations of police misconduct, Fox 2 reports. Rose has since withdrawn as an alternate DNC delegate.

“Keith Rose has decided to voluntarily withdraw as an uncommitted alternate delegate to the DNC,” the Missouri Democratic Party said in a statement.

The new videos, taken from two different angles, show Ferguson Police Officer Travis Brown apparently being hit by 28-year-old suspect Elijah Gantt on a sidewalk outside a police station after protesters attempted to pull down a perimeter fence. Police say Brown is “fighting for his life” after being critically injured in an assault during protests on the 10th anniversary of the fatal shooting of Michael Brown.

The newly released video, taken from CCTV and another police officer’s bodycam, was played at a news conference Tuesday and shows the suspect had a running start when he ran down the officer, whose head violently struck the pavement.

Officer Brown was unconscious and prone on his back with the suspect lying on his chest as other officers quickly arrived and jumped on the suspect.

Sure, but Keith will still be voting for Horizontal. Mostly peaceful.

Second degree of attempted murder and battery, with the possibility of upgrading if the officer cannot recover.

The Ferguson police said it best. The police have implemented all the reforms that BLM demanded. What are they protesting? Not to mention, the Ferguson riot was based on a lie. Despicable.

But he's not withdrawing from the City of St. Louis’ Civilian Oversight Board.

St. Louis is a failed city that continues to lose population.

Perhaps. But don't you think the burning of the country will be a significantly bigger problem if the White House (Kamala/Walz) is encouraging it.

If Kamala is in office, then any attempt to suppress rioting will be deemed a hate crime.
