According to the source, law enforcement officers were forced to take into custody more than 80 people. Protesters blocked the streets, smashed storefronts, and also threw policemen with stones.

Protest actions later turned into riots.

To clear the streets, police used tear gas and truncheons.

Recall that the reason for the skirmishes was an acquittal to a police officer who shot an African American accused of drug trafficking.

At the moment, the media recorded 11 people who received serious injuries.

As reported in the "URA-Inform", earlier in the American city of St. Louis in the clashes with the police were arrested more than 13 people.
