BERKELEY, Mo. (AP) — Violent protests broke out again in suburban St. Louis after another fatal shooting of a black 18-year-old by a white police officer.

The shooting happened around 11:15 p.m. Tuesday at a convenience store in Berkeley, Missouri, just a few miles from Ferguson, where Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old, was killed by a white officer in August.

St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar says the Berkeley shooting victim was black and the officer white.

Belmar says police were called about a theft and as the officer questioned two men, one pointed a gun at him. The officer fired three shots. One hit the gunman.

A violent protest broke out. Two officers were injured, police cars were damaged and fire was set at a QuikTrip store. Four people were arrested.

Obama might have to break away from his Hawaii vacation long enough to address the in-progress, long-time-in-coming, race war.

Officer kills 18-year-old in shooting near Ferguson, Missouri - WRTV6 (ABC/Indianpolis)

BERKELEY, Mo. - A police officer shot and killed an 18-year-old Tuesday in Berkeley, Missouri, authorities said – sparking new unrest in a region already reeling following an August police shooting in nearby Ferguson.

As ABC News reports, the shooting happened at 11:15 p.m. Tuesday at a Mobil gas station, St. Louis County Police public information officer Sgt. Brian Schellman said.

According to Schellman, the officer said he noticed two males on the side of the gas station building and approached, when one of the men pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the officer.

“Fearing for his life, the Berkeley officer fired several shots, striking the subject, fatally wounding him,” Schellman said in a statement.

The shooting is under investigation, and the deceased man’s handgun was recovered, Schellman said. The victim’s identity has not been officially released, but the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports the victim's mother identified him as Antonio Martin, 18.

His mother, Toni Martin, said her son was with his girlfriend at the time of the shooting and refuted police claims that her son was carrying a gun. He was trying to get his life back on track after getting expelled from school, she said.

Dozens of protesters arrived on the scene shortly after the shooting, and remained there overnight.

The Post-Dispatch also reported the man's body remained on the ground of the parking lot of the gas station for at least two hours, and that the gas station appears to have security cameras that are trained on the parking lot.

As video shows, at one point explosive flashes were set off at the protesters.
