Michael Brown's Family Got Into A Huge Brawl Over Memorial T-Shirt Sales

The brawl happened on Oct. 18 just a few blocks from where Brown was killed. It involved Brown’s mother and paternal grandmother, as well as dozens of others.

Gordon — who is the mother-in-law of Michael Brown's father — was selling the shirts with two men, according to a police report posted by The Smoking Gun. The trio had set up a tent in the parking lot of Red's BBQ on the corner of W. Florissant and Canfield Dr., just down the street from where Brown was killed on Aug. 9.


The T-shirts had the words "Justice for Mike Brown" printed on them.

A witness later told police she saw the people entering the tent and "assaulting (punching) the vendors," the report reveals. The witness shot video of the incident but has not turned it over to police.
