...said no one.:lol
A day of peaceful vigils to mark the one-year anniversary of Michael Brown's shooting death turned ugly late Sunday night when protesters threw rocks and bottles at officers, and police critically injured a man who they say fired at them.
The unidentified man in his 20s was undergoing surgery early Monday morning.
He unleashed a "remarkable amount of gunfire" against the officers using a stolen handgun, St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said.
Detectives in an unmarked SUV turned on its emergency lights and pursued him, only to be shot at, according to Belmar. The bullets hit the vehicle's hood and windshield several times, Belmar said.
As the detectives got out of the car, the suspect allegedly turned around and fired again.
Then he ran toward a fenced area, where he continued firing -- until officers struck him multiple times, Belmar said.
Several objects were thrown at police and some businesses damaged, the St. Louis County Police Department said. A journalist was attacked and robbed in a parking lot. Three St. Louis County police officers were injured: one was struck in the face by a brick while two others were pepper-sprayed.
Police, with helmets and shields, pushed crowds back and called in tactical units.
And the icing on the cake...
"We're ready for what? We're ready for war," some in the crowd chanted.
