One year ago, on August 9th, 2014, at 12:03PM CDT in Ferguson, Missouri at Canfield Green Apartments, the events of what happened that afternoon changed the fate of the city of Ferguson and the STL Metro Area forever. The event in question is the shooting of Michael Brown by Ferguson Police Department officer Darren Wilson (who has since resigned) and the subsequent protests, riots, and looting that came in the aftermath of the shooting and after the Wilson grand jury decision was handed down on November 24th, 2014 at approx. 8:20PM CDT. The Andy Wurm Tire and Auto lot and the sidewalk across the Ferguson Police Department on South Florissant has been (and still is) a site of protest activity. West Florissant between Chambers Rd. and Ferguson Ave. is also a prominent protest corridor.
