In a recent statement, Michael Browns mother asked that her son not be part of self-serving business or political actions as she pleaded that he be remembered for the good. A reported assault and theft this past weekend may dramatically underscore that sentiment.
It happened Saturday night, October 18th, at about 8:15 pm in the parking lot of Reds BBQ. It`s the corner of Canfield and West Florissant, just blocks from where Michael Brown was shot and killed.
Police sources tell us Brown`s Grandmother, Pearlie Gordon, along with Brown`s Cousin Tony Petty, were selling t-shirts and other Michael Brown merchandise.
A police report describes a car pulling up and several people getting out. One of those people, was reported to be Michael Brown`s Mom, Lesley McSpadden. A witness described McSpadden yelling You can`t sell this s%$& One of the relatives, who was selling, reportedly demanded McSpadden show a document proving she had a patent.
The police report says that`s when an unidentified person with McSpadden assaulted Petty so violently that it resulted in a 911 call. A witness tells Fox 2 that the weapon was a metal pipe or pole. The suspect reportedly struck Petty in the face. Medics then took him to Christian Northeast Hospital. The witness said the assault suspect grabbed merchandise and a box of cash believed to contain about $1,400.
It appears surveillance cameras could have captured the fight and be part of police evidence. Police report no arrests at this time.
We reached out to the local Brown family attorney, Anthony D. Gray and he declined to comment.
Obviously grief stricken !

Everyone needs to take a very close, very serious look at the photo in #3 above.
When peaceful coexistence becomes impossible, warfare is inevitable.
I guess the dude in front thinks the “Show Me State” means showing everyone your fat gut, your drawers and your idiocy.
The irony should be funny, but is just sad.
The family has to call the same police that they are blaming for the death, to protect them from the neighborhood thugs.

Nice Herman’s Hermits ref!
just blocks from where Michael Brown was shot
Why hasn’t Red’s BBQ been looted and burned?
then somebody call DaPoPo.....
Why on Earth would they call the police? I thought the police were their enemy.
Dunno, really. It's contradictory actually, but a 911 call was made. Assault notwithstanding, my bet is on $$ involved here.
What would St. Trayvon of the Blessed Hoodie do?
Is this story the beginning of that new movie, “Space Balls 2: The Search For More Money”?
Looks like, and we’re all in it. Mel Brooks couldn’t direct something as madcap and deranged as this storyline.
Suzi, run and get me an ice cold Latte.
WW..........STD? Hahahahaha!
Entrepreneurship is infectious. Two ears ago these people never thought they would be in business for themselves.
