Following the fatal shooting of Berkeley, Missouri, teenager Antonio Martin, all hell broke loose in Ferguson just 2 miles away.
A large group of protesters formed at a gas station near the sight of the shooting during the early morning hours on Christmas Eve, and wound up clashing violently with Ferguson police. Apparently, many protesters threw rocks and bricks at a parked police vehicle, and even engaged the police on the scene in a full-fledged fist fight. Numerous individuals who participated in the mayhem were arrested, and at one point during the melee, police released what appears to be a flash bang grenade to subdue the crowd, along with macing virtually anyone standing near them who they viewed as a threat.
The angry protest eventually dissipated, with rage this high we hope there are no more chaotic moments like this to follow in the near future.
