Protests over the police shooting of an unarmed teenager reached a boiling point in Ferguson, Missouri on Wednesday night.

Two reporters and an alderman were arrested, and police were armed with tear gas, rubber bullets, and armored vehicles as they attempted to control protests that they say were no longer peaceful.

Thursday's front page of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch conveys the intensity of the clashes:

Residents of the St. Louis suburb are angered over the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was apparently unarmed when police shot him on Saturday.
