Protesters, upset with Gov. Nixon’s curfew in Ferguson, said they would be marching into Dellwood, once the curfew hit.
FERGUSON, Mo. (KMOV.com staff) – Protesters say they will be marching peacefully from the QuikTrip on West Florissant into Dellwood before the Ferguson curfew goes into effect at midnight.
The group “Missouri Organization for Reform and Empowerment” says they are trying to rally demonstrators to be at the burned down gas station around 11:00 p.m. Many of them say Governor Nixon has infringed on their rights to peacefully assemble.
Many other protesters say they will not respect the curfew put into effect by Governor Nixon and plan on staying out past midnight.
