Oath Keepers On Black Lives Matter
InfoWars could not be reached for immediate comment.
About 150 people have been arrested so far during several days of protests. Police said Tuesday that 22 people were arrested overnight in Ferguson and another 63 were arrested for trying to block a highway a few miles out of town. On Monday, 57 people were arrested for breaching barricades that blocked a federal court in St. Louis.
There were no shots fired and no burglaries, looting or property damage during the protest along West Florissant Avenue on Tuesday, county police spokesman Shawn McGuire said. The thoroughfare was the focus of months of massive protests last summer after the killing of Brown by a white Ferguson police officer, Darren Wilson.
On Monday night, no smoke or tear gas was used, and no police or civilians reported injuries, McGuire said in a statement. By 1 a.m., the crowd and police were heading home. He said approximately 23 arrests were made, though police were still confirming official totals.
On late Sunday, however, a protest in the same area was interrupted by gunfire and a police shooting that left an 18-year-old suspect critically injured.
The violence set Ferguson on edge and had protest leaders worried that tensions could escalate. St. Louis County Executive Steve Stenger declared a state of emergency that authorized the county to take control of police emergency management in and around Ferguson.
