A 20-year-old black man is being held on $300,000 bond in the shooting of 2 police officers during a peaceful demonstration in Ferguson, MO., on Thursday, Mar. 12. The police officers were wounded in the face and shoulder. They were treated and released on the day of the shootings.
Police said tips from the public led to the arrest of Jeffrey Williams on Saturday. He was charged with two counts of assault in the first degree, three counts of armed criminal action and firing a weapon during a drive-by. St. Louis County officials announced his arrest on Sunday.
Williams supposedly told investigators he wasn’t aiming at the two police officers when he fired a handgun from a car early Thursday morning. He supposedly said he was targeting someone else when he opened fire.
Police recovered the .40 caliber handgun that was allegedly used in the shooting. Officials say the handgun matched the caliber of bullet casings found at the scene.
Ferguson residents are skeptical of official statements following the arrest.
St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch said Williams was “out there earlier that evening as part of the demonstration” and that he shot into the crowd as he was leaving the demonstration.
But Brittany Ferrell, 26, a protest leader, said Williams was not part of the demonstrations outside the Ferguson Police Department. She said she spoke to other demonstrators and no one knew him. She said Williams is being used to put a negative spin on the protests.
“This is a fear tactic,” she said. “We are very tight-knit. We know each other by face if not by name, and we’ve never seen this person before.”
Others believe Williams may have been coerced into taking the fall for the shooting. Others believe Williams was offered a deal to drop charges in an unrelated case. They scoff at the dubious police claims that Williams shot 2 officers with a handgun from a distance of 125 yards away while fleeing in a vehicle.
A nearly impossible feat, even by a trained marksman.
The demonstrators were celebrating the ouster of Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson, who stepped down following a scathing DOJ report on corruption and racism within his police department.
Protests have been a daily occurrence in Ferguson since the August 9, 2014 shooting of unarmed teenager Michael Brown by a former Ferguson police officer.

He looks older than 20!
Let’s see who makes a GoFundMe for him. If Darren Wilson got one so should he
That boy looks crazy about the eye area. You can always tell if folks are not right when you look em in the eyes. Pay attention to the eyes folks!!!!
Mawnin yawl.
That’s an old looking 20 year old dayum! Not to self, NEVER visit Ferguson!
Ok lets be real since when a person targeting someone (not a professonial hit) gonna shoot 125 yards away, he would do a drive by. Its also cute how its an “attorney” that saw him with the demonstraters earlier that day
These kids be living hard. They come here looking like grandparents. Like the one who jumped that girl in Mc D’s. She’s 17 looking like 30
Anyone watch Sweetie Pies. We were bored Saturday.
I’m shocked he was ae to shoot at two officers and get away so fast. I think we have been lied to so much by FPD, we don’t know what to believe.

They paid this man to take the fall
so sad. I wish these dudes had more backbone to stand up for something.
Well, in my mama voice, if he dumb enough to let them coerce him into admitting something he didn’t do, his azz deserves to be in jail for it. A good Black civil rights attorney would rep him for free
They look old cuz the growth hormones to speed up the growing process of our food
Plus ppl having kids with old, frozen, test tube eggs thats been sitting on a shelf or in a lab. Baby be made from old dusty stock. How u make a new baby with something from out the freezer? Baby come out smelling like frion.

If anything this nig is in kahoots with the tipster. The reward money was up to 100k. They probably splitting it
This fool right here
User or momma and daddy got a old face passed down from generation to generation.

Sounds like the script from Have and Have Nots GTFOH when they paid dude to say he killed/ran over the lil girl and not Wyatt
Hey Yall :wave:
Watching Mary Mary…. Love Tina but she shouldn’t wear ponytails
If he shot from 125 feet away, and they had NO idea who it was then how all of a sudden is he the culprit? How Sway?

LIKE WHY DOES SHE DO THIS TO HERSELF
V!
still no word from otb? 
where she at?
@UserFriendly
You know people in the hood don’t wait to have kids, and they surely don’t use frozen eggs. I’m 26 and my younger cousin told me she thought I just didn’t want kids. I feel like an old maid 
Blanche maybe she doesn’t know??? Doesn’t know she has the Brain genes?
UF lmfaoooooooo
Oh Sandra the lil chia pet known as Jermaine Dupri is trying to sue Ciara over I Bet since the Gaye family won their lawsuit last week
He is saying the track to I Bet is his track from Usher’s U Got It Bad
They sound similar but JD has done so much shady shyt, he should just let her be great.

Word on the skreet is that my Baybay lost her phone and just got around to checking her email :eyeroll: 
Ain’t no way this dude is 20
MissA— girl u know i just made that up. I dont think i know any in vitro babies in real life.
But I think the bad quality of air makes a difference in how the kids be looking so dusty. I have seen dusty looking toddlers. Smog & newport babies

The Gaye family is not getting their money for this reason.
This has already been hashed out with The Police, Hammer and Vanilla Ice and in that ruling by adding, taking away or altering the beat in anyway changes it. A whole lot of law suits are coming. I hope Sam Smith made Tom Petty sign a “don’t come back no more” agreement too cause Tom Petty can get PAID and song credits
JD just broke. His suga mama found a sugar daddy.
*Queen, MC hammer and Vanilla Ice*
Not The Police ..
@User Friendly
It has to be something. I’m sure air quality and the food are probably it. And they probably don’t get enough sleep and healthy food. How are you 8 with dull skin and bags under your eyes? I do know that 27 is the peak to have a baby and it goes downhill from there :wails:
Blanche she won’t stop, can’t stop.
Lord forgive me, but you know it’s true.
UF child idky these kids be looking like this straight out the poosay. When I was younger I had a friend who had her first child at 16. He looked 40. Like he should have a smokers jacket and pipe.
When we gone get into Tyga professing his love for Kylie?
I’ve have seen some old looking babies this past week. At first I thought it was due to the age of the mom.
Baby come out smelling like frion.
================
you so MEAN, dis too early!! 
*she right doe
Had me counting my bail stash for nothing
i thought she was locked up 
Don’t tell me OTB is the pokey
:crying1: 
@ Blanche I wish she would get back to her Promise days. I really like I Bet. Love me some Tamia
