Tonight marks the second day of protests in St. Louis following the questionable shooting of 18-year-old Vonderrit Myers. The situation is already escalating, as riot police are in the streets and reportedly macing protestors.

In addition to macing a pregnant woman, it appears the police have maced each other, too.
We'll have more as the night continues. It doesn't look pretty out there.
Update: Tensions aren't as high at the moment, but police say earlier someone threw a knife at an officer. The officer had a minor injury after being hit in the shoulder, and two arrests have been made.
