More than 1,000 protesters marched peacefully through downtown St. Louis, demanding justice for police violence including the fatal shooting of an unarmed teenager in suburban Ferguson two months ago.

The demonstrators walked about a mile toward the city’s iconic Gateway Arch as police cars blocked off traffic. The diverse crowd included members of labor groups, clergy, fast-food workers and community activists. Many carried signs while yelling “no justice, no peace.”
