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.

We have two long years before sanity returns to an insane country.

Whitey had best wake up, smell the coffee and the coming race war.

From my perspective, most of Whitey is in need of a good purge. Good riddance. On the other hand those who have a clue are prepared for what is about to come down.

I was taught that if a weapon were ever drawn, it was immediately discharged until there were no rounds left to fire.

What sort of imbecile "points" a weapon at anyone, much less a cop?

BERKELEY, Mo. — Surveillance video released by authorities show a confrontation that ended with an armed black man shot and killed by a white police officer Tuesday night, police said.

The shooting happened a few miles from Ferguson, where a white police officer fatally shot Michael Brown in August, sparking months of civil unrest.

St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said video from the scene has been released to the media.

St. Louis County police spokesman Sgt. Brian Schellman said a police officer saw two males at the side of a gas station while conducting a routine business check at about 11:15 p.m. He approached them and one of the men pulled a handgun and pointed it at the officer, Schellman said in a statement.

"Fearing for his life, the Berkeley officer fired several shots, striking the subject, fatally wounding him. The second subject fled the scene," Schellman said.

Belmar said the unnamed 18-year-old suspect was armed with a pistol. After the officer, a six-year veteran of the Berkeley police department, engaged the suspect, Belmar said the video shows the officer rapidly move backward then fire three shots. One shot struck the suspect, another struck the tire of the officer's patrol car and it is unknown where the third shot hit. Police do not believe the suspect fired any shots.

Belmar said another man who was with the suspect fled and is considered a person of interest in the case. He said there were at least three witnesses to the shooting.

The officer was not wearing the body cam issued to him at the time of the shooting. It's unknown if there's dash cam footage from his patrol car.

Full-screen the video. Ffw to 1:30. The image is stamped in the upper left with the words "CAMERA 29." Look to the right of the "9" to see the suspect emerge and raise his hand with what looks from a distance to be a gun. Vid stops there unfortunately out of respect for the family of the deceased. - r.
