Night two of the Ferguson curfew begins at midnight in St. Louis/Ferguson. But the night is already off to a bloody start. A woman has been shot and taken to the hospital. She was reportedly shot by gangster thugs

Bunch of gangs fighting tonight, locals say. Woman taken away with gunshot wound, per policeman. #Ferguson

The violence is escalating in #Ferguson. Shots fired, Molotov cocktails thrown, tear gas deployed – all tonight. Curfew isn't until 12am.

Tear gas is even being fired by the police, and it’s not even midnight.
Tear gas, armored vehicles, flares. Reporters standing here with hands up so we don't get fired at. #Ferguson pic.twitter.com/Pv9mewADWS

Tear gas reportedly hit an eight year old boy in the face. They are probably being forced to use tear gas because of the Molotov cocktails being tossed at them. But may I ask, WTF are children doing at this protest?
“@ryanjreilly: 8-year-old hit with tear gas #ferguson https://t.co/cpB3fVc58O” Why is an 8 year old out this late in a school night?
