[RT] The two cops shot in Ferguson, Missouri on Thursday morning were the victim of an "ambush," the St. Louis County police chief said, but added that the officers will suffer no long-term injuries.
Chief Jon Belmar provided an update on the situation in Ferguson during a 9 am CDT presser early Thursday, held just a few hours after two officers were shot near the city's cop shoppe.
"This is really an ambush," Belmar said.
"Fortunately, with both officers, we don't have any remarkable long-term injuries," the police chief said.
Belmar told news hounds that a demonstration outside of the Ferguson Police Department building on Wednesday evening had turned "pretty rowdy" before two "defenseless" cops were shot. |
