Four hours
A tattered American flag lies in front of Canfield Green Apartments on Sunday, Aug. 9, 2015, where Michael Brown was fatally shot by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson last year and left to lay in the street for more than four hours later.
“They shot a black man, and they left his body in the street to let you all know this could be you,” Ferguson resident Alexis Torregrossa, 21, said almost four weeks after the shooting. “To set an example, that’s how I see it.”
