From Yahoo News:
A man was gravely wounded in a gun battle with police in Ferguson, Missouri on Sunday night after a day of peaceful rallies to mark the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white officer one year ago. Several volleys of gunshots rang out as police in riot gear tried to disperse demonstrators blocking traffic and smashing storefront windows along a street that was a flashpoint of last year's unrest in the St. Louis suburb after Michael Brown, 18, was slain. Police later said the gunfire began with two groups of agitators apparently shooting at each other.

Anniversary commemorations had begun hours earlier with a peaceful march through the St. Louis suburb. The scene changed dramatically after dark. Dozens of protesters converged on West Florissant Avenue, which bore the brunt of last summer's rioting, and chanted: "Shut it down" in the midst of a severe thunderstorm.

Given the history of the police planting "agitators" into demonstrations to escalate the situation so the police can justify using more force the first thing I asked myself when I read
Police later said the gunfire began with two groups of agitators apparently shooting at each other.
was "what if was two groups of plain cloths cops shooting blanks at each other?"
Will they find any slugs tomorrow? it doesn't mention anyone was actually hit.
