This is really special. Captioning sponsored by cbs this is the cbs evening news. Axelrod good evening. Im jim axelrod. And this is our Western Addition of the broadcast. A curfew has now been declared in ferguson, missouri. It begins tonight at midnight central time, and will run until 5 00 sunday morning. Missouris governor jay nixon announced the implementation of the curfew late this afternoon after violence and looting returned to ferguson last night. 40 more f. B. I. Ages have arrived in ferguson, according to the state police. Theyre working the neighborhood where a Police Officer shot and killed an unarmed teenager by the name of michael brown. In the hopes of finding more witnesses who can help clarify exactly what happened one week ago today. Cbs news correspondent Vladimir Duthiers is on the ground in ferguson. Good afternoon. Reporter the curfew, announced by governor jay nixon, starts midnight tonight and runs till 5 00 a. M. The goal, he says, is to restore order after a week of unrest. Reporter this is not to silence the people of ferguson or this region or others but to contain those who are drowning out the voice of the people with their actions. Reporter state patrol captain ron johnson assured residents that it would not be a return to the militarystyle tactics that angered the community in the days following the Fatal Shooting of 18year old michael brown. We will enforce that curfew. We wont enforce it with trucks. We wont enforce it with tear gas. Well communicate. Well talk about, you know what . Its time to go home. Reporter the curfew follows another overnight standoff between police and protesters on the same block already scarred by rioting. Several businesses were ransacked and witnesses say at one point police seemed to stand down as looters moved in. This morning, coowner abraham stood armed guard outside the store with other family members, angry that the police did not do more. A citizen should not be out here with assault rifles and pistols protecting the store. Thats what the cops are here for in this country. Thats what theyre supposed to do. Obama didnt say stop stop protecting and serving. Reporter its been a week since brown was killed. Surveillance video released yesterday appears to show brown stealing cigars from a local convenience store. 15 minutes later, he lay dying after a confrontation with Police Officer darren wilson. The release of that tape yesterday at the same time they released wilsons name again angered residents who felt it was an attempt by Ferguson Police to justify the shooting. This morning, volunteers returned to the riot scene to clean the damage. Michael browns cousin, ty pruitt, was there expressing the family a frustration that the violence has overshadowed the investigation. One human being killed another human being, and thats thats what we need to figure out, why it happened. Reporter today, residents marked the oneweek anniversary of the shooting with protests and memorials, and outside the Ferguson Police station, protesters raised their hands at the moment brown was killed. Witnesses say brown was attempted to surrender when he was shot. Now, federal authorities opposed the release of the Surveillance Video that angered so many residents, jim. The Justice Department asked the Ferguson Police not to do it, believing it would further roil the community. Axelrod Vladimir Duthiers in the tense town of ferguson missouri. Vlad, thank you. Russell honore is the retired army general credited with restoring order in new orleans after hurricane katrina. He joins us now. General what are your thoughts about this curfew that has now been implemented in missouri. I think the biggest thing that needs to be happened between now and the time the curfew starts and good thing they have about six to seven hours now is to communicate with people what that curfew means, and specifically what part of the city that it that is included. So they should be doing some major media engagement now on all local television and radio stations, telling people not only when it starts and when it ends but what happened in the middle of the night if you get up and you need to go to a hospital . What happens if you go to work at 3 00 in the morning . Also, what are the consequences of being caught out walking from a party . Are you going to be immediately arrested for being on the street . Is this going to be a misdemeanor or is this going to be some other type of infraction . Axelrod so youre talking about communication. Let me just ask you, based on your experience in new orleans, where is the line between establishing a sense of trust with the community and keeping everything safe . Obviously, it takes Significant Police presence, and thats not police with machine guns out, but police with flashlights out, insurance, safety. Lets put the guns down because were here about the safety of the people, not only protect people but protect property. Axelrod based on what you saw in new orleans, can public order be restored and sustained in ferguson . Absolutely. Absolutely. Axelrod general russell honore, thanks for joining us, general. This afternoon, Texas Governor rick perry defended himself against yesterdays grand jury indictment charging him with abuse of power. Pushing back hard he cast himself the defender of the texas constitution. In Austin Manuel bojorquez has more on perrys fighting words. I exercise this authority to veto funding for an office whose leadership had lost the publics confidence by acting inappropriately and unethically. I wholeheartedly and unequivocally stand behind my veto. Reporter the case is about power with both governor perry and the special prosecutor accusing each other of abusing it. The dispute started in april of last year when Travis County District Attorney rosemary lembergh, a democrat, was pulled over for drunk driving. Her blood alcohol content was three times the legal limit, and she was uncooperative. Do you know what youre doing . Reporter at one point, Law Enforcement officials put a spit guard around her mouth. Dont film this. Reporter lembergh pleaded guilty. Perry demanded lembergh resign and threatened to veto funding for her offices Public Integrity unit which investigates political wronged doing, if she did not step down. When she did not, he followed through. Because of the threat, perry now faces two felony counts abuse of official capacity, which carries punishment of 599 years, and coercion of a public servant. Michael mccrum is the special prosecutor. I took into account the fact that were talking about the governor of a state and governor of the state of texas, but when it gets down to it, the law is the law. Reporter perry is the first Texas Governor to be indicted in almost a century. I intend to fight against those who would erode our states constitution and laws purely for political purposes, and i intend to win. Reporter hes recently crisscrossed the country, raising expectations hell run for president again in 2016. The grand jury that indicted him comes from a heavily democratic county. Thank you. Reporter the special prosecutor plans to meet with perrys attorney next week to discuss his arraignment. There is no word on when the governor will be booked.

Lieutenant colonel maged sindi showed us the shrapnel wounds he suffered while trying to evacuate the thousands of yazidi religious followers trapped on mount sinjar.

According to a study out today, more than 4,100 food trucks are now open for business in nearly 300 cities. For owners of older and less mobile establishments those numbers are a little hard to swallow. Heres mark albert. You all been waiting on us . Reporter this is the first food truck to open in downtown knoxville, and customers could not wait. Its been hard for us to set up because so many people are banging on the window trying to get us to open up. Reporter across the country, the culinary upstarts are so successful, in fact, they may be disrupting the traditional restaurant business. I dont hate food trucks. I think they make it tougher on the restaurants to survive. Reporter Gavin Coleman owns the dubliner in washington, d. C. From the moment food trucks started lining up right outside profits from his crucial lunch hour crowd disappear exclude never came back. We depend on these peak hours of service and lunch being one of them so to have food trucks come in and sit right outside of my door and take away from that peak hour makes it tough to survive the other 18 hours that were open. Reporter concerns over competition, safety, and Public Health have divided cities on how best to regulate food trucks. Chicago bans them within 200 feet of a restaurant. Pittsburgh is among the toughest, forcing operators to move every 30 minutes. But a third of communities surveyed by the National League of cities had no time limits and half didnt ban them near restaurants or had lenient restrictions. Instead of fighting the trend, establishing d. C. Restaurant guapos, launched the own food truck. Owner veronica sieler said her mobile kitchen cooked up new customers. Its actually brought back more than what we expected. They have actually, you know, discovered some of our locations. Reporter but across town, coleman wont do the same. Hes betting his familys pub, serving irish fare in the same spot for 40 years, can still satisfy customers hungry for a choice. Mark albert, cbs news, washington.

Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. If youre still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible.
