A protestor runs down the street to escape tear gas fired at demonstrators on Sunday, Aug. 17, 2014, in Ferguson, Mo. As night fell Sunday in Ferguson, another peaceful protest quickly deteriorated after marchers pushed toward one end of a street. Police attempted to push them back by firing tear gas and shouting over a bullhorn that the protest was no longer peaceful.
