FERGUSON, Mo.—Police outnumbered protesters along West Florissant Avenue in Ferguson on Tuesday night, signaling the demonstrations around the anniversary of Michael Brown’s death could be starting to fade.
The crowd of around 100 demonstrators was mostly calm and peaceful. Occasionally a few people would march or chant, but they spent most of several hours milling around and chatting with one another. It was a far cry from the violence and tension that marred the previous two nights.
