Anonymous has sent a media release regarding the recent police shooting to death of a youth in Ferguson, Mo., warning police and urging the town citizens to help prepare for larger protests.
An eyewitness, Phenix Daniels, who lives across the street from where the alleged murder occurred, said police shot Mike Brown, 17, “at least ten times.” Daniels posted on Facebook a video of the scene shortly after the alleged murder.
“The entire global collective of Anonymous is outraged at this cold blooded murder of a young teen. Not a week goes by that some young person, usually of minority ethnicity – is slaughtered by murderous police in the USA,” the Anonymous statement reads.
Dupré reported earlier on Sunday:
“This is the second time in a week that an officer shot dead a black youth.. sending hundreds into the streets to protest and many more expressing their outrage on Twitter in a #Ferguson hashtag campaign. Earlier this week, a white police officer killed an unarmed black youth in an Ohio Walmart.“
Multiple witnesses say Michael (Mike) Brown, 18, had no weapon on him, had his hands up in the air, but was shot by authorities multiple times.
Brown was to start college classes Monday.
