Black Teen Shot At 17 Times, Killed By White Cop Just Miles Away From First Ferguson Shooting
Here we go again.
Exactly two months after the deadly shooting of Michael Brown by a local police officer in Ferguson, MO, it is time for the sequel. Overnight, in nearly the same spot as the Brown shooting, a white off-duty policeman shot and killed a black teenager in St Louis, officers said, triggering a night of protests just miles from the site of another police shooting of another black youth in the suburb of Ferguson.
Reuters has the details: police said the 18-year-old was armed and fired three shots while he was being chased by the officer, and they had recovered a gun at the scene. The youth was killed almost two months to the day since sometimes violent protests erupted in Ferguson after a white police officer shot dead unarmed black 18-year-old Michael Brown.
In Wednesday's shooting, the dead man was one of three people who fled after being approached by the officer, a six-year veteran of the department who was working for a private security company, St. Louis Metropolitan Police Chief Sam Dotson said.
Now, one can debate police excess, and while a cop shooting once, twice or three times at an alleged assailant may seem somewhat reasonable, lobbing off 17 shots (which means stopping to reload) is probably a little excessive!
The officer, who was wearing his city police uniform, fired 17 shots at the teenager, police added.
To summarize: cops say Myer was armed but witnesses say he was only holding a sandwich when he was tased, fell over & then was shot at 17 times of which "only" three hit.
* * *
A crowd of around 200 gathered at the scene in the south St. Louis neighborhood of Shaw, 11 miles (18 km) south of Ferguson. Many of the protesters marched to a major thoroughfare, partially blocking traffic and chanting "Whose streets? Our streets?" as a police helicopter hovered overhead.
Teyonna Myers, 23, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper that she was the cousin of the suspect and that he was unarmed when he was killed.
"He had a sandwich in his hand, and they thought it was a gun. It's like Michael Brown all over again," she told the paper. Police have not named the teenager.
And then the riots began. "At one point, about a dozen people punched and kicked two occupied police vehicles, one that was marked and another that was unmarked. Demonstrators then broke the back window of a marked police vehicle. None of the protesters, some of whom were from Ferguson, had been arrested by the early hours of Thursday, police chief Dotson told a news conference."
"I think the department showed a tremendous amount of restraint," Dotson said.
He probably wasn't referring to the 17 shots fired earlier.
The officer, who was not hurt, has been placed on administrative leave and an investigation was under way, police said.
St Louis' historic Shaw district has a relatively low crime rate - as of September, there had been no homicides this year and just five cases of aggravated assault, according to police crime statistics.
In Ferguson, a grand jury is expected to decide next month whether to bring criminal charges against police officer Darren Wilson, who shot dead Michael Brown on Aug. 9.
Brown's death triggered weeks of sometimes violent protests, prompting the governor at one point to summon the National Guard.
And in other news, the riots which died down over the past two months, may be set for a violent comeback: "Missouri authorities are drawing up contingency plans and seeking intelligence from other police departments around the country, fearing that fresh riots could erupt if a grand jury does not indict Wilson."
Per Twitter reports, the casualty is 18 year-old Vonderrick Myer.

Are you advocating isolating the cops who misbehave?
I was hoping he meant the politicians and bankers
So what?
Why Do Blacks Attack Old White People?

Nonwhite Crime Apocalypse Envelops New York Cityhttp://newobserveronline.com/nonwhite-crime-apocalypse-envelops-new-york...
"New York City, once America’s greatest and most famous metropolis, is now a crime-ridden hell where nonwhites commit 95% of all murders, 90% of all rapes, 90% of Felony Sex Crimes, 96% of all robberies, 91% of all Felonious Assaults, 90% of all Grand Larceny offenses, 86% of all Misdemeanor Sex Crimes, 90% of all Misdemeanor Assault and Related offenses, 87% of all Petit Larceny offenses, 84% of all Misdemeanor Criminal Mischief offenses, 96.6% of all Shooting offenses, and constitute 90.8% of all firearm arrests, 86.3% of all Drug Felony arrests, 82.3% of all Felony Stolen Property arrests, and 94.5% of all Felony and Misdemeanor Complaint Records with Identified Juvenile Victims, Suspects and Arrestees—all this according to official figures released by the New York City Police Department."

New York City is the home of the oligarchs that control our central government, care to talk about those crimes ?
Oh wait, they only kill bad guys and steal from the damned.......
Ethno-Oligarch crimes are discussed here everyday, lol.
I'll believe the cops (which is the exact opposite of what I usually do) seeing as they were correct with that other thug being gunned down which interestingly enough the outrage of that shooting vanished once it was shown the guy was a robbing thug and busted up the cop's face. Then again, this new guy was a blackie so clearly he could have NEVER done anything wrong. It's clearly racism. Has to be. Blackies never do anything wrong when whities are involved.
Starnesville MO
you expect the cops to check for sandwichez before they pull the trigger

Wake the fuck up Murica
Tyler, "in nearly the same spot" is a load of horse shit. I live in Saint Louis City (not county- Ferguson is in St. Louis County). The shooting that this article is about occurred in the Shaw neighborhood in mid-city. As the bird flies, it is about 12 miles away and to commute would take you over half an hour (via the interstate). There are over a dozen municipalities between the the two locations. Maybe compared to people getting killed in, I dunno, Syria, these two locations are "nearly the same spot."
I believe that it is important to draw this distinction because the fear mongering on this website is of an epic proportion. This headline and article make it sound like it was the same police force. This happened on the OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CITY as Ferguson is (which again, is not even part of the city. Ferguson is St. Louis County and Darren Wilson was a St. Louis County police officer).
Phew. I feel better. Now that that is off of my chest, can we talk about what kind of firing range training these SEAL's must get that you need 17 shots to neutralize a target?
Irony is that it's possible the Darren Wilson STLPD that was first confused with Ferguson's Darren Wilson could potentially be in that district (don't remember what district he was in).
I guess I'll have to learn to excuse old angry white men. The less your dick functions the way you'd like it to the angrier you seem to be.
''old angry white men" are responsible for every creature comfort you enjoy you little communist twat.
What has your old ass done besides bitch on a comment board you old closet faggot?
MrTown is like a horny hoe trying to get some from her distracted man. Just pull your pants down and bend over, Mr Town. White guy's gonna take you to poundtown!
You can get up now. I know when I'm licked.
Let's recap. Vonderrick and his cousin are hanging out in the hood at 2 a.m. sharing some tuna melts and going over their homework assignment for tomrorow. They have deams of becoming doctors and curing ebola. They are unarmed since they have no room for firearms in their book bags filled with sandwiches. A cop in uniform comes by and demands a tuna sandwich. Vonderrick and his cuz run away to protect their sandwiches. The cop starts shooting and then plants a throwdown with a jammed round. The tuna is recovered showing bite marks but Vonderrrick's prints are not found on the throwdown or the jammed round in the chamber. After shots are fired, Cuz comes back alone to face the cameras. Cue Al Sharpton, while Eric Holder sends in the writers, producers and cast of CSI Fergusen. Sounds about right.
So, the new rule is no matter what "Vonderrick" does, he walks?
As is usual. the current report (# of shots, etc.) will prove false in the next few days - but will be repeatedly ad infinitum in the interim.
Divide and Conquer at its best...Yes they want to cause civil unrest...Its a shame the a 18 year old was shot dead...but please people dont make this a black/white issue...if we start fighting each other the cops and their tanks move in and they win!!
No need to call each other names.....
Ebola diversion straight ahead.
ZUUULUUU..................................
What kind of sandwich?
Cause, that might make a difference. Some of those Subway daily specials are awful.
Now that the Black Racists have shown up to make money off their racist hate-speech, it's time to consider Black Racism in America today, of whom Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Eric Holder are the biggest proponents.
There is a certain segment of the Black community that is nothing but a bunch of David Dukes wearing blackface. Anyone who doesn't believe this segment of Blacks are among America's largest and most virulent group of racists, needs only spend a few minutes reading their hate-speech.
Judging by the content of their character, Dr. King is weeping to think how they've turned his "I have a Dream" speech into such a sick nightmare.
So you want to discuss Blacks getting killed by Whites? First, when are you shutting down the Killing Fields of endless Blacks killing Blacks in DC, Chicago, NYC, Detroit, LA, Miami, Atlanta, Boston, East St. Louis . . . ? Oh, can't bring peace to your own neighborhoods?
Or how about even coming out with rallies against "Polar Bear Hunting" - the Black Racist event that you (I'm speaking to Eric Holder in particular) can't seem to admit is Black Racism at its most despicable and violent?
Or how about shutting down the 70% illegitimacy rate of Blacks? Or the fact that more Black babies are aborted than born in NYC?
Care to opine on why Black children graduate from high school and can't read or write cursive? Or tell time on an analog clock - even though they are taught by Blacks - or are we supposed to believe in your Black Racist insanity that the remaining White teachers undo the teaching of the Black teachers?
Maybe you can bounce around some thoughts about why Blacks allow gangsta rappers to be role models - with their misogyny, drug addictions, relentless violence, irresponsible sex lives, and bling-based evaluation of personal worth?
When will you admit that your Black Racism is a scam to excuse the Black community's Death Spiral at the hands of your fellow Black Racists?
How about some discourse on the way Blacks sold Blacks to Arabs - to this very day? Tell us about your rallies to shut down the present-day African slave trade.
And don't forget that after thousands of years of slavery by Blacks - as well as every other race on Earth - that it was Whites who outlawed - and enforced - the criminalization of slavery - which is still practiced by African Blacks.
And who can be a really Black, Black Racist without forgetting all about the hundreds of thousands of Whites who died to free Blacks from slavery in America. Oh that's right - it's all the White's fault that slavery existed in America - despite the fact that the first slaveholder in America was Black - over a third of slaves were owned by Blacks - and the largest slaveholder at the time of the Civil War was Black.
Darn those Inconvenient Truths!
Frankly, you are a disgusting group of nothing better than a Black Ku Klux Klan. Those of us who got our heads wacked by the cops in the Freedom Marchs didn't do that so that the White Citizens' Council could be replaced with the Black Racist Hate-Speech Club. (By the way, Al - Eric - Oprah - Jerimiah - Michelle - Barack, care to share how many marches you got beat up in to win these freedoms from apartheid?)
I expect to read about how being White I have no place commenting about anything to do with the Black community - it's a Black thing and all that Black Racist trash.
OK, so shut up about Whites. You're not White so you are as equally incapable of discussing White culture as Whites are incapable of discussing Black culture. Let's see how your total lack of integrity sits with your Black Racist standards being applied to your own Black Racist hate-speech.
I for one, will be no more intimidated by a bunch of Black Racist bullies than I was of the White racists. You are big-mouthed cowards who don't have the sense to come in out of the rain.
If Oprah is correct, and racism will only die when the racists die - I look forward to your demise very soon. Hades will have new fuel for the fire, and the Earth will be a safer, cleaner, more loving place without you.

Phenomenal comment!
Seek help.
Sooner or later, America will be plunged into full scale racial civil war. Bigotry and racist hatred is part of the ingrained genetic code, and now the cup runneth over.Sick society.
When the grand jury does not indict the the first cop for attacking Gentle Mike with his eye, we're looking at Rodney Redux nationwide. That's good, because the ensuing bonfires will kill off a lot of ebolas.
Our nation is nearing the point where the thugcops are a bigger health risk than the perps, and that doesn't count 'civil asset forfeitures'. I guess bloodthristy criminals should consider acquiring a license to murder and steal (police badge). Might as well gain the protection of the law/political machine. What's the cut to the house for that protection? 20%? 30%? 40%?
Arm Ferguson with "Ghost Receivers".
Glock capacity is 17 rounds.
So simply shooting till empty is fairly likely.
'''old angry white men" are responsible for every creature comfort you enjoy'
Technically, "Salvation" only comes from The Brown God.
Even Black Near Death Experience (NDE) people report seeing a White Light. ; )
Hiyooooo.
It's way past time to release the ER and hospital pictures of Darren ______? , the first cop, who got his face caved in (while still in his police car) by the giant 6ft 4in, 296 lb Michael Brown. I think one of Darren's eyeballs was even protruding/dangling from the socket, but Darren didn't even fire his weapon at Brown for that....
Darren somehow still managed to exit his vehicle and tried to arrest Brown as he was walking away, but Brown turned and bum rushed the cop again from 30 feet away -- and that's when then cop fired on him, while the cop was already severely injured.
I'm emphatically all for de-militarizing the police --- but it won't ever happen as long as scared hispanics and whites see frenzied urban black people rioting in the streets for all the wrong reasons!! FFS!
How does it feel to be a liar? How do you get your face caved in without a fracture? the cop didn't have one.
"Shot 17 times." Reloaded or extended clip?
Glock 17 holds 17 9mm standard. Pretty common service pistol. I'm not certain that is what SLPD carries.
When my dad taught me to shoot, it was always double-tap, center of mass. If you really wanted to be sure (as a t-shirt I used to have said), "Two in the body, One in the head, guarentees they're really dead". I learned on (and still own) an accurized Colt 1911 with a 7 +1 round capacity and heve never felt that I would need more to dispatch one or two perps.
Do police not receive firearms training anymore, or is this a result of the Playstation Generation School of Marksmanship? Hold the gun sideways, fan the "X" button until dry, the right-click for another clip?
Seriously, I used to be taught that seeking cover was essential in a gunfight, now I'm thinking that standing out in the open might be just as safe.
Guess I'm getting old. :P
Glocks are junk.
Talk about excessively long trigger creep.
And they feel like a crudely rounded 2x4.
The 1911 (.45ACP) won WW2. The 9mm lost WW2.
First they destroyed N. St. Louis, now they destroying S. St. Louis. The Detroitification continues apace.
I do not know who make me to more fear the negros or the police officers.
Watch out for gay minority cops.
BTW... Multiculturalism is code word for WHITE GENOCIDE.
Multiculturalism is code for “love Jews” “hate the others”.
You guys are both fucking idiots.
White genovide? Haha
Hahaha Yeah that's right white genocide. The slow motion kind where anybody from a third world shit hole is allowed to flood in to any western country and force them to pay for their irresponsible breeding habits.
He's coming right at us Ned, SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT etc etc etc..........
If I didn't work in the city, I would rarely travel there. From the knockout game, carjackings, the bump cars and rob you move, muggings, home invasions, rapes, kidnappings, car thefts, etc. the city just ain't all that. I have to laugh when I see those stupid "city" stickers. Yeah, that's awesome, you pay a premium on auto insurance and risk the entire gamut of criminal action. The Shaw neighborhood has been gutted by the impoverished. There are streets that have $400,000+ three story mansions next to 4 family flats rundown and rented to the sec 8 freakshows. The neighborhood has a beautiful botanical gardens and some decent eats, but I couldn't imagine any real reason to live there. Entire blocks have been razed, and there are still several blocks that are just abandoned and boarded up.
Maybe they shot him cause he looked like he had Ebola
Free Shit Army. We refuse to work or speak clearly in English!! Live Free or Die
More MO'rilla witnesses, as honest as fat Al Sharpton... "witnesses say he was only holding a sandwich when he was tased, fell over & then was shot at 17 times of which "only" three hit."
So now the Cop tased the guy, after which he (and his sandwich) fell to the ground... only THEN, did the Cop empty his gun from close range, firing 17 times at a supposedly tased 'boo... lying there helpless on the ground. the Cop, from close up... only hit the guy 3 times out of 17. Anyone else smell the Jiga-bullshit here?
I'm right there with you. Except most people know that there are only 15 rounds in the clip and he would have had to reload to fire the last two shots. However the liberal shitheads reporting this crap would embellish or as I like to say fucking lie about the incident. More propaganda.
Did the officer say "You look like you're doing okay."?
Bernard Getz style.
Nope, seems perfectly reasonable narrative of events to me, they omitted where the cops dragged his body through the streets afterwards, but I'm sure that will come out and lent over the body saying 'that one bad nigger boy not going to worry us no more'
a staged FF to fly in Ebola?
A "ham sandwich" probably
So when does the family file a law suit against the policeman, police dept, the city, the mayor, the newspapers for reporting the story, the readers for reading it, and the Glock manufacturer?
Where's Al's legal team?
They should sue whatever idjut invented the 9mm parabellum.
9mm is cruel and unusual punishment.
They kill too slow.
how many shots can you take at a cop until it becomes okay for him to shoot back ?
they have recovered this thug's weapon , a 9mm handgun. the article above specifically does NOT mentioning that little factoid.
Depends on the mag in your sandwich...
IMF reports that China just overtook US to become world's largest economy. White guys/cops were too busy giving their Glocks handjobs to notice.
In IMF speak: nation means plantation.
Give up your guns and join the slaves, ya goddamn rebels.
I didn't even know Glock made sandwiches TOO. Diversification is always good.
Glocks are unsafe, inaccurate, uncomfortable, and just plain ugly.
Should still be using the 1911.
Or the Springfield XD.
Maybe the first 14 were warning shots.
America is a rogue nation
American police robs its citizens of cash
American police murders its citizens
America launches wars on other nations on false grounds(WMD) killing millions
America topples govts. of other nations, installs military dictators & robs their tons of gold. (Ukraine, Egypt, Thailand, etc etc etc)
America promotes perversion(homosexuality) & drug abuse by their legalization.
Sanction America now.
Boycott America Now
Boycott US dollar Now
Dont sell to America
Dont buy from America
Dont buy American goods.
(same applies to its cronies too)
Being stupid is fatal. Having rotten parents is fatal. The State is the worst parent of all...
The headline should read, "Ex-con dies in shootout with cops". Not even a lead story.
