Protesters Removed from Busch Stadium After Showing 'Stop Killing Us' Banner

Protesters were removed from Busch Stadium in St. Louis on Friday night after unveiling a banner that read "Stop Killing Us" during an MLB game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers.

Kevin McDermott and Nassim Benchaabane of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported the group of demonstrators, who chanted "no justice, no baseball" while holding the sign, were taken out of the stadium by police.

The protesters joined a group in Kiener Plaza as part of ongoing demonstrations after Jason Stockley, a white St. Louis patrolman, was found not guilty of murder in the death of Anthony Lamar Smith, a black drug suspect, on Sept.
