Heres what captain ron johnson said yesterday about the impending curfew. Listen. Tonight, we wont enforce it with trucks and tear gas. Well communicate. Well talk about, you know what . But hours later, they did, in fact, use tear gas. Captain johnson saying it was because officers saw man who had been shot and they needed to disperse the crowd to get to the wounded man.

Hes in hiding but were learning a lot about him. And Abcs Steve Osunsami is covering that angle, also from ferguson this morning. Steve, good morning to you. Reporter good morning to you, dan. The families have been saying this. Police shared long before this the pictures and mug shots and names of all of those people involved in the looting and beating earlier this week. Long before they shared and identified this officer. The mistrust here is strong. This morning, families here are getting this first look at the policeman who shot and killed Michael Brown. Heres officer darren wilson, awarded for his police work last february in a photo posted to facebook. Hes just 28 years old, a sixyear veteran of the Ferguson Police department. This morning, he has to hide in a safe place, secret shelter from the firestorm of rage and anger running through the streets. This suburb of st. Louis now known to the world after wilson shot Michael Brown in the street. Justice reporter missouris governor took his call for order to a city church yesterday. This is a test of whether a community, this community, any community, can break the cycle of fear, distrust, and violence. Reporter he ordered the midnight curfew. It didnt go over well. You need to charge that police with murder. Reporter at one point, hes caught in the middle of the screaming. Were going to watch this one day at a time. This is, uh um this is not normal.

Reporter just when people were settling down, the pot boiled over on friday, when the Ferguson Police chief released this surveillance video. Police believe it shows Michael Brown, wearing the red hat, in the middle of a strongarm robbery at the liquor store 15 minutes before he was shot. Thieves hit the store hard early saturday and robbed three others. And the Business Owner says the police didnt do a thing. When i made the 911 call, they all told me, it aint our problem.

What do you think after being there for a week now, what do you think will calm the situation down finally . Reporter absent the prosecution of this officer, im not sure whats going to ease the tensions here. People are demanding prosecution of this officer. They want to hear charges, but the District Attorney is telling us it could be weeks before any decision is made on that. Dan . Steve osunsami has been on the ground for a week for us. Steve, su. Thank you. Lets get the perspective of ray kelly, the former Police Commissioner of the city of new york. Good morning, commissioner. This has been going on for over a year. The democratic governor imposed a curfew, a state of emergency. What is your take on how the situation is being handled . I think you have to preface anything you say by emphasizing the fact that ferguson is a very small town. They dont have the resources. Community affairs, that sort of thing. Hindsight is always 20 20. In my career, i learned to do things the hard way. I think there are things there that had they had an opportunity to do over, they would do over. For instance, i think you need full disclosure from the beginning. You put out all the information you have. This is what we have. This is what we dont have. This is what we know. The specifics as far as numbers of shots fired, bullets the wounds on the body. That sort of thing. We dont know this. I think part of the problem came about because there was this sense that they were holding back information. I think also you need one person in charge of this operation. And i think the governor tried to do that with captain johnson. Its not clear whether or not hes totally in charge because you have multiple jurisdictions. You have many small town, small agencies there because they just dont have the resources to do it on their own. You have the state police, the county police, all of these towns. Theyre lessons that theyre learning. Short of charging the officer, what can be done to ease the tensions right now . Communication. Thats what theyre attempting to do. Continue the go out, meet with the community. Theyre not easy sessions, as you can see. I think theres a fatigue factor with captain johnson. Quite frankly. Hes doing everything out there. Its taking a toll on him. You can see it. But continue to have meetings with communities. Continue to get that exchange and listen to them. As the process goes forward, the grand jury process hopefully continues to go forward quickly. Wthank you for your time. You dont think this is going to end anytime soon. Thank yoso much. Dan . Thank you, commissioner. President obama has weighed in on this crisis from his vacation calling for calm. And for a full investigation into the shooting of young Michael Brown. That was three days ago. The question this morning, should the president be doing more . Lets bring in jon karl in washington. Jon, how worried is the white house about the optics of all of this . Having him on vacation while this city burns . Is there talk he should leave his vacation and try to calm things down in ferguson . No talk that i can sense from the white house staff at this point. The president is getting regular briefings. Were told hes closely monitoring this. Its a tough situation for him in terms of getting too much micromanaging. Trying to act, as it were, at the mayor of ferguson. What hes done, as you said, hes ordered the investigation, the fbi and the department of justice investigating what happened with Michael Brown. Hes praised the governor. One of the other things he did in his statement. It would be a little bit difficult for him to come in right now and step on the governors toes on this. Theyre uneasy about this and unsure what role the president has to play. There has been a at this point, a sizable federal roll with the fbi fanning out and investigating the case. Jon, thank you. We should say that jon will be coanchoring this week later with Martha Raddatz who is also in ferguson. Along with guests including the governor of missouri, jay nixon. Paula, over to you.

Come on i can do this come on use your muscles use your muscles you got this there you go come on i did it yeah i did it now to the story of a basketball star launching a fullcourt press, if youll excuse the pun this morning, against the way police handled a scary incident at his home. Ray allen cant understand why the whole thing is being treated as a silly prank, especially when his wife feared for the lives of her family, when the intruders barged into her bedroom, where her young kidding were sleeping. Abcs Michelle Franzen here with this unsettling story. Reporter it is unsettling. Youre right. The nba star was not at home at the time. The wife was jolted awake when the teens allegedly entered the home. The police investigated this as a burglary. They say now theres not enough evidence to charge the teens beyond trespassing. This morning, basketball superstar ray allen is crying foul at the Coral Gables Police department and how they handled what he says was a serious crime committed against his family. We pray that no one else has to endure this kind of intrusion on their home or their familys safety. Everyone deserves to feel safe in their own homes. Allen says a group of seven teenagers broke into his home in the middle of the night while his wife and four children were sound asleep. In a statement to abc news, he says his wife shannon woke up to loud voices only to find five people in their bedroom. With flashlights. She yelled out, what are you doing in my house . They fled. Reporter after interviewing the young adults, authorities are calling it all a prank, saying the teenagers were all partying next door, thought allens home was vacant, and wanted to see what it looked like. Police have not charged them with anything because the group entered the home with an unlocked door and didnt steal anything. Apparently under florida law, unless the victim files a complaint, the police cant charge trespassing unless they witness it. Reporter allen and his family are blowing the whistle on this. Telling us that the suggestion that anyone can enter an occupied bedroom and in the middle of the night without consequences is unsettling. They intend to press charges. The Coral Gables Police Department Says theyre continuing to work with the miamidade Attorneys Office and will work with the allen family regarding the filing of criminal charges. I dont think we have seen the last of this. Its hard not to share their outrage. Coming up on good morning america, a big apology over something you probably see on your computer every day. Who is saying sorry and why . And sorry aint good enough. And why is sara doing that weird thing with her hands . Its all coming up in pop news. Its all coming up in pop news. Meet lance.
