Protests halt Black Friday shopping at malls near Ferguson
Demonstrators shut down three large malls in suburban St. Louis on Black Friday as part of nationwide protests over the grand jury decision not to indict Officer Darren Wilson in Michael Brown’s death. About 200 protesters at Galleria, 50 at West County Mall, and several dozen at Chesterfield Mall disrupted entrances, with no major arrests. A week of demonstrations expanded to Chicago, New York, Seattle, and Northern California. Protesters aim to disrupt commerce and raise awareness as tension remains high after the Brown shooting.
