FERGUSON, MO (KTVI)- St. Louis County Police have confirmed to FOX 2 that the suspected shooter of two police officers early Thursday morning outside of the Ferguson police department is in custody.
The two officers were shot just after midnight, as many protestors were headed home following a night of protests after the resignation of the citys police chief.
One of the wounded officers is from Webster Groves Police and was shot in the cheek, just under his right eye. The other wounded officer is with the St. Louis County Police and was hit in the shoulder and the bullet came out the middle of his back. Both men were treated and released.
This is a developing story.
MSM; He was not targeting the police even though one got shot in the face, the other in the arm...
He was simply shooting at someone else...
You’ll be hearing this for weeks to come.
Let’s hope he spends all the rest of his birthdays behind bars.

Charges POSS CONTROLED SUBSTANCE
Thank you for your time and trouble.
Be fair. “The news” didn’t say that; the law enforcement spokesman did. He indicated that the perp was making that claim, but the investigation isn’t over.
The news report you heard was only correctly quoting from the press conference.
Where did this 20 year old get a hand gun and was he convicted of felonies and were conditions of his parole violated by being in possession of a firearm? Additional charges should rack up pretty fast.
They're not even charging him with attempted murder, just assault. That will be plead down to disorderly conduct and he'll spend no time in prison once the plea is handled.
Wait for the scrubbed facebook photos of him being “gangsta” complete with sideways held pistol sporting a blunt with gold teef
That would make two mug shots.
Just like his brother Trayyvon
So their way of making this ok. .I’d that this was just unrelated black violence a hundred yards away? They are a cartoon of themselves.
Be fair. The news didnt say that; the law enforcement spokesman did.
Which begs the question; Why would the cops be telling the press his side of the story?
Why not just report the facts of the case as they know them?
???
He was on probation for receiving stolen property... but was just getting his life together no doubt.
Not sure about Missouri, but in many states, there’s no such crime as “Attempted Murder”. Assault on a peace officer with some form of deadly weapon enhancement would be the usual charge.
I never heard of a news conference regarding a major crime where the arresting agency tells the press what the suspect’s defense is going to be !!
WTF?
Thugs can get guns anytime they want...
Michael Brown - hands up
Jeff Williams - wasn’t trying to kill cops, just someone else
Missouri does indeed have “attempted murder” as a possible charge. I haven’t got a clue as to why they’re only starting with assault in this case.... it will be severely plead downward as usual.
Wonder if it was a "Glock Fotay"...
and I bet we’ll hear he was about to start college next week...
