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.
Letting the air out of the Holder/Sharpton balloon before they can launch it?
Who’s willing to bet he’ll use the “I’m fighting against racial oppression” defense?
How could it be otherwise.
The shooter’s name is Jeffrey Williams, age 20 and boy oh boy, he’s black..I know Im stunned stunned I tell ya, sarc
What are the elements of the crime of attempted murder in Missouri?

I wouldn’t be surprised the animals of Ferguson will cry that the cops are racist for arresting a black man for shooting 2 cops.
More racism in Ferguson PD. The black population is comprised of 67.4% black but their cop shooter arrests are 100% blacks.
Considering a shoulder fired gas gun is 37mm, I don’t think you get to keep your wrist if you fire a fotay pistole, but we all know it was an AR-15 fotay. Just like the suspect was Amish.

What the cops just did was publicly state what the suspect's defense was going to be, IE; That he did not mean to shoot at cops and was actually shooting at someone else. The cops just laid the foundation.
All the racist criminal defenders will immediately repeat this so much, it will be seen as what happened before a trail ever starts...
All of this did is to minimize the severity and penalties/charges of this attempted murderer.
Juan’s son.
Trial too...
Yep...Mug shot #3.
WHAT..no picture of him in his cap and gown Im shocked
Obama, Holder and Rahm Emmanuel’s kid no doubt.
Is that a tat on his neck? Can anybody make it out?
In the states where there’s a specific crime called attempted murder, one of he elements is intent to kill a specific person. The appropriate charge to file is one that fits the evidence at that point, and if there’s no current evidence of intent to kill those officers, the charge would be as outlined by the DA. He could possibly just be stating what the current state of the evidence is that lead to him filing the charges that he filed. They can always be amended as more facts emerge.
and a local to boot... they told us all the bad guys were from out of town
and that he is a nice kid that got caught up in all the trimmings associated with protesting for a good cause.
Don't know, but if you Google "attempted murder Missouri" you'll see several cases where that charge is involved.
I would think that shooting at someone multiple times would count as attempted murder regardless of how bad your aim was.
