We continue to focus on ferguson, missouri. What started as a day of peaceful prayer in many places there took a very different turn after nightfall. We will walk you through what was a chaotic scene on the streets of missouri, and discuss what residents wake up to early monday morning. All of that coming up here on cnn. Again, another night of tear gas, gunfire, molotov cocktails, vandalism. We will hear from Police Officers again, but this is more than a week after the Police Killing of Michael Brown, the unarmed africanamerican teenager. And the polices version of events we heard a short time ago from captain ron johnson. He said authorities saw protesters throwing molotov cocktails. They then fired at police ahead of the second night of the government imposed curfew. Riot police then responded with what you see here, tear gas, rubber bullets. Police also say two people were shot amid this chaos, say they were not shot by Police Officers. There have also been a number of arrests, most of them we understand for failing to disperse. This information just into cnn this past hour, the governor of missouri signed an executive order to deploy the National Guard to ferguson, and schools in this area will be closed on monday, all because of the heightened tensions that exist there now. Demonstrators say their march ahead of sundays confrontation was nonviolent. We were walking peacefully down to the mall, a young lady was hit in the face with smoke bombs and tear gas. And we were peaceful. This is unacceptable. This is not the law. This is unacceptable until we get justice, we will not stop thats a lot of people that were in the protest were Peaceful Protesters, apparently there were some gang members mixed in the scene. A short time ago, the state Police Officer you see here in charge of security in ferguson said sunday nights violence was not spontaneous. Tonight. A sunday that started with prayers and messages of unity. Peace and justice took a very different turn after dark. Molotov cocktails were thrown. There were shootings, looting, vandalism, and other acts of violence that clearly appear not to have been spontaneous, but premeditated criminal acts designed to damage property, hurt people, and provoke a response. The catalyst was not civil disobedience, but preplanned agitation and aggression. We have correspondents all over ferguson. Ed lavandera was there at that press conference as captain johnson updated all of us on why a more Robust Police response was necessary. Ed, we heard from a protesters a few moments ago, she was so furious, so convinced she was peaceful, everyone around her was peaceful, but obviously the police have a different version of events and wanted to target those making the situation worse. Take us to where you are now. I know things have calmed down, but how high were emotions a few hours ago . Reporter oh, incredibly tense. According to what the state police here in missouri are saying, it all quickly deteriorated, according to their time line in about 45 minutes, from the time the first sounds of gunfire were heard, where a civilian was wounded. By the time the crowd made its way probably a half mile from where the demonstrations were taking place to this point here, where the command structure is for the security teams, it was really at this point back over here over my Left Shoulder when the crowd started reaching this point is when authorities here started to tell the protesters that they needed to disperse, and again, a lot of attention focused. I think what made tonight so difficult is that people throwing the molotov cocktails involved in the escalating tensions tonight were mixed in with the crowd. As we have been reporting the last few hours, many that have come out to ferguson to protest peacefully and to follow in their demonstrations in hours leading to the curfew that a lot of people are intermingled, that caused a lot of tension and really chaotic scenes that we saw here. At some point, at various points, saw families that brought their children out here to participate in the demonstrations, caught in all of the melee that was going on. Authorities say there was vandalism and looting, saw there was a mcdonalds with a huge window shattered out, trying to make low concrete barricades in the middle of roadways, taking concrete structures from various businesses on one stretch of roadway. So theyre saying that they were basically left with no alternative at this point, and thats why they had to escalate their response. And because of that, the real significant news were hearing now is that the governor of missouri is activating the National Guard. How many troops we will see deployed and how quickly they get here is information that were still trying to get a handle on, but clearly after tonight, the situation here escalated to a point where the next level of force will be brought in and it will be interesting to see how in the next 24 hours people respond to that, given what we have seen another night of chaos in ferguson. And thats a great point. We should now discuss whats going to happen in three hours or so once this curfew is lifted, once residents wake up, reassess the situation, and realize new information thats emerged overnight. You mentioned already the governor deploying National Guard to ferguson, unclear how large that presence will be. We have also seen the second autopsy that the family had conducted released, shows Michael Brown was shot six times. All on the front of his body. Two shots to the head, four to the arm. Ron johnson, captain johnson, a man welcomed in churches sunday morning, tearing up as he said to people i am you, you are me, lets do this together. How are people likely to react monday, schools closed, as all of this information emerges. Is it something that will aggravate people more or if there will be a calm over the city . Reporter you know, i think there are a lot of people who are trying to organize the protests. We heard so much from them over the last few days that theyre trying to organize the rallies and demonstrations in an orderly, peaceful way. I know theres a great deal of anxiety among those folks when they see this more sinister element come into the area. According to the governor of missouri and other officers as we have spoken with them, they believe a lot of people causing the problems arent necessarily people from the ferguson area. In fact, i was talking to one state highway Police Officer, he said two people arrested in last night, saturday nights protests, were from the neighboring state of illinois. Clearly there are a couple people who had come into in their view to basically cause trouble. So you have those kind of elements mixing together here. And i know for people that were trying to do this in a peaceful manner, it creates a whole lot of anxiety. You heard the governor in his statement, announcing deployment of the National Guard. He is saying the violent nature of the protests is doing a disservice to the family of Michael Brown, which is really focused on as they said seeking justice in this case. Interesting to see how the protests are seen by the family of the shooting victim in this case, if that message cuts through in the next 24 hours. Ed, it is past 2 00 in the morning where you are. The purpose was to disperse people. The curfew is in effect. Could you show us around, show us the mood now, is everything gone, everything calmed down, what can you tell us . Reporter this is a very secure area. This is the area you see behind me is the command post for the security teams that are being deployed into the area, and the area of concern is if you shoot back that way, probably along that stretch of main roadway that goes about a mile or so, depending on where people are gathering, it is kind of a relatively short stretch of roadway that has become the focal point, flashpoint for a lot of the chaos in the last few nights. Dont want to give people the impression this is something thats happening all over the city of ferguson. This is a concentrated, localized area being effected. Theres a main roadway, and then which is very close, five or six blocks from where Michael Brown was shot and killed last weekend, and some of the roadways that lead into that that are the focus of the issue. So from what we can tell, things have quieted down dramatically, as you mentioned, just after 2 00 in the morning in the city of st. Louis, and from what we can tell, havent heard any more, havent seen a whole lot of Police Activity of people making their way back into the scene. We think for now, the worst has passed here in the city of ferguson tonight. Ed lavandera live in ferguson, missouri, after quite a night. We will bring viewers more of special coverage from missouri after the break. Coming up, it was a far different scene earlier in ferguson. We will take you to a peaceful rally that was held sunday. And shot at least six times, twice in the head. More on what were learning from the second autopsy on Michael Brown. Stay with cnn. Only ones shooting was the police. There was black people, all we did was march, fall to our knees. Didnt have to be shot down with no tear gas. I did ten years in the military, just came back from iraq, you shoot me with tear gas . I didnt get tear gassed in iraq but i am on city streets getting tear gassed. Listening there to the anger, the frustration by what she says, a war vet, saying this is my community, i am getting tear gassed. People convinced they were demonstrating peacefully, didnt feel like Police Response was justified. As we heard this past hour, captain ron johnson saying the cops did a fine job identifying provocateurs and dispersing the crowd. Certainly a split view on what was going on from the police side to that protesters side. You could certainly feel her anguish. Absolutely furious. At the treatment for she did nothing. And that was where were at. We are now as we have been mentioning getting results from a second autopsy on Michael Brown. This one was conducted sunday by renowned forensic pathologist dr. Michael baden at the request of Michael Browns family. It is upsetting to see this drawing and to hear about these Bullet Wounds. The report shows he was shot at least six times, two of the Bullet Wounds were to his head. One of those wounds was to the top of his head, suggesting his head was bent forward when it struck him and caused fatal injury. Dr. Badens report indicates it was likely the last bullet to hit him. The other four Bullet Wounds were to his right arm. Now, the family requested dr. Badens autopsy because they dont trust local authorities to do an impartial investigation. That sent meant at the heart of this in missouri. Eric holder says the Justice Department will conducts its own autopsy of Michael Brown. The attorney general says this case involves extraordinary circumstances and that justifies taking a third autopsy now. Earlier this sunday, more than 1,000 people packed a local church to demand justice for Michael Browns death, his parents were there, appearing briefly on stage with their attorney but didnt address the audience. A cousin of Michael Brown spoke passionately about his death. Michael brown was not just some young black boy. He was a human being. He was a younger cousin. He was a son. He was an uncle, a nephew, he was not a suspect. He was not an object. He was not an animal. But thats how he was killed. I want to start off by talking to mike browns family. And i want you to know my heart goes out to you. And i say that im sorry. I wear this uniform. And i stand up here and say that im sorry. Captain ron johnson there, we heard from him a short while ago, a news conference. Of course, he took over security for the town thursday and he has kind of been the face and the voice for this police force that is multi facetted, police from different departments of the county, from the city and Highway Patrol, and now the National Guard headed to ferguson as an executive order by the governor. We learned that just about an hour ago. Among things to keep in mind while we cover demonstrations, the Police Response, theres what sparked this all, the shooting of an unarmed teen. Were going to continue to follow developments out of missouri throughout the day on cnn. Coming up in the next half hour, were going to look closer at the investigation into the shooting of Michael Brown, now that one of the three autopsies has been revealed, how does it change the investigation, does it match what witnesses are saying, what else do authorities know about the case. All of that coming up this hour on cnn. Also ahead when we come back, well tell you about some of the other stories from around the world.
