US-CRIME-POLICE-RACE-UNREST

A demonstrator kneels on the street as he and others block an intersection in St. Louis, Missouri, on November 23, 2014 to protest the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown. More than 100 protesters marched peacefully through St Louis on November 23, stepping up pressure on a grand jury to indict a white police officer for shooting dead an unarmed black teenager. Police stepped up security and erected barricades bracing for the worst with a grand jury to decide whether to indict the police officer. Brown was shot at least six times by police officer Darren Wilson in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson on August 9, inflaming racial tensions and sparking weeks of protests, some violent.
