1 Shot By Police During Ferguson Protest: At least one person was shot by police in Ferguson, Missouri, when gunfire erupted during a protest marking the one-year anniversary of the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said a man was in “critical, unstable” condition after an exchange of gunfire with plainclothes detectives. Belmar said that while uniformed officers were deployed to monitor businesses following reports of looting during the protest, four plainclothes detectives were tracking the man who they suspected was armed. The man approached the officers, who were in an unmarked police van, and opened fire. The officers returned fire from inside the vehicle and then pursued the man on foot, Belmar said. The man again fired at the officers and all four fired back, striking the gunman.

A LITTLE SWEETENER
Philly DJ to Donate Money to Family of Pilot Killed in Crash: A Philadelphia DJ who suggested a fatal plane crash in California was connected to a GoFundMe campaign he created to fly a banner over the Dallas Cowboys training camp plans to donate money to the victim's family, even after it was determined the pilot was not the same pilot contracted to fly the banner. The Aviat Inc. A-1 single engine plane, towing a banner, crashed at about 12:30 p.m. on a California runway. The pilot was the only person aboard the plane, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The pilot had just picked up a banner at the airport before the fatal crash, the agency said. Eric Emanuele, also known as the Mighty ERock, had created a GoFundMe campaign for a banner which read "We Got Demarco," which was meant to be flown over the Cowboys training camp in Oxnard, California. NBC4's Kate Larsen later confirmed however that the pilot killed in the crash was not the same pilot contracted to fly the Eagles banner. "Regardless of the circumstances ANY loss of life is tragic. I am working with the aerial advertising company to ensure money raised from the original flight will go directly to the family of the pilot," Emanuele said in a statement.
