At least nine people were arrested in St. Louis Wednesday as protests continued over an officer-related shooting of a black teenager.
Police Chief Sam Dotson said Mansur Ball-Bey was shot when he pointed a gun at officers, even after he was ordered to stop and drop his weapon, according to Fox's St. Louis associate Fox 2.
Upon learning of his death, protesters swarmed the streets while chanting insults and gesturing obscenely at officers. Some even surrounded individual officers, yelling at them.
In addition to the arrests, police responded when they heard reports of burglary and arson.
