FERGUSON, Mo. (CN) - Police are investigating an assault allegedly involving Michael Brown's mother that happened Saturday.
The incident happened at about 8:15 p.m. in the parking lot of a barbeque restaurant, just blocks where Brown was killed.
KTVI-TV reported that Brown's grandmother Pearlie Gordon was selling T-shirts and other Michael Brown merchandise with Brown's cousin Tony Petty.
A car pulled up and several people got out, including Brown's mother, Lesley McSpadden, according to a police report. A witness described McSpadden yelling: "You can't sell this [expletive]."
One of the relatives who was selling the merchandise is said to have demanded McSpadden show a document proving she had a patent, at which point an unidentified person with McSpadden assaulted Petty with a metal pipe or pole.
A 911 call ensued, KTVI reported.
Medics then took Petty to a hospital. A witness said the assault suspect grabbed merchandise and a box of cash believed to contain about $1,400.
Anthony D. Gray, an attorney for the Brown family, declined to comment to KTVI.
The fatal shooting of Brown, an unarmed 18-year-old black teenager, by white Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson on Aug. 9, sparked nearly three months of daily protests against police brutality and racial profiling.
Bet this is one entrepreneur that Obola won’t be critical of.
What are the chances she had all the required business permits and was collecting/reporting/remitting sales taxes?
More like Jerry Springer.
If you made this up as a parody, you would a racist.
She jumped out of the car and yelled (effectively), “You didn’t build that!”
bump
“But I guess it’s true?”
{sigh} and {sigh sigh}
There’s beyond satire and then there’s now.
These people are corrupted in some basic way. Sad.
Was that Lesley McSpadden,Mom or Mother-inLaw?Anybody.
There are few things more humorous than two liberals arguing over the spoils of war.
Pathetic people. Your kid/grandkid dies and you set up a merch shop?
Well at least the (expletive) part right.
You can’t make this (expletive) up.
How can anybody take these people seriously?
Worth more dead than alive to his family. Charming
“Black trash”
Tom Lehrer has a song about those folks:
“got so much cash,
now, by gum,
we’re rich white trash . . .
oops, wrong color trash.
“Vultures and jackals fighting over a carcass.”
Wouldn’t “Quarreling cockroaches” be more descriptive?
