Violate erupted in St Louis suburbs after a grand jury decided not to bring charges against Wilson Darren who was charged for 5 teens in a road accident. The violate saw police car set ablaze, rubber bullets and tear gas fired by the police who were trying to control the unruly crowd. Protesters also set a storage facility and a pizza shop on fire.
The protest started when a grand jury decided not to bring charges against Wilson who killed 5 teens in a car on August 9, 2014. There were reports of bricks being thrown and looting. Wilson was charged with killing 5 teens in August after he lost control of his vehicle. The crowd chanted “not the fair judgment we have been waiting for” as they threw bricks at the security officers. This was the most awaited verdict in Washington.
There has been a series of accidents in Washington involving over speeding or intoxicated drivers, in what is now seen as the public issue rather than a personal issue. The affected families filed a class lawsuit against Wilson. According to legal professionals, filing a class lawsuit may be the may cause of Wilson released without punishment. The professionals argued that filing the individual personal lawsuit would be more effective and would also outline seriousness of the matter. Although the affected families would save legal some money by filing a lawsuit as the group, this significantly lowered chances of succeeding. The accident attorneys advised the crowd to file the individual lawsuit with personal injury lawyer rather than a group lawsuit in the case of such accident in future.

Police preliminary investigations could not reveal the cause of the accident but witnesses said the soldier was over speeding when he lost control of the motor cycle and bumped into the truck. The truck driver lost control of the truck and hit the post. The soldier and truck driver were taken to the nearby hospital to receive treatments.
