All this nonsense re-ignited by a false story.
FERGUSON • A Ferguson police officer is recovering after police say a woman punched him in the face and broke his nose during a protest outside the Ferguson Market Sunday night.
Chief Delrish Moss said the officer was trying to arrest a man on the parking lot around 10 p.m. during a protest there following the release of a film titled “Strange Fruit.”
The film’s creator and narrator, Jason Pollick, and Lezley McSpadden, the mother of Michael Brown, allege that footage in the film shows Brown trading marijuana for Cigarillos with a store clerk there about 11 hours before his fatal encounter with a Ferguson police officer, disproving the police notion that Brown was robbing the store moments before he was killed.
Attorneys for the Ferguson Market allege that the footage in the film was edited and pledged to release the unedited version Monday, which shows the store clerk throw what looks to be a baggie containing an unknown substance back at Brown.
