WASHINGTON (Associated Press) — The Justice Department plans to open a wide-ranging investigation into the practices of the Ferguson, Missouri, Police Department following the shooting last month of an unarmed black 18-year-old by a white police officer in the St. Louis suburb, a person briefed on the matter said Wednesday night.
The person said the investigation could be announced as early as Thursday afternoon. Missouri officials were notified Wednesday of the probe.
The investigation will look at the practices in the past few years of the police department, including patterns of stops, arrests and use-of-force, as well as the training the officers receive, the person said.
The inquiry is separate from an ongoing civil rights investigation the Justice Department is conducting into the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown by Officer Darren Wilson on Aug. 9. A local grand jury is also investigating the shooting, which set off about two weeks of unrest in the streets of Ferguson and became a flashpoint in the national discussion of police treatment of minorities across the country. Attorney General Eric Holder two weeks ago visited the St. Louis suburb, where he met with investigators and Brown's parents and shared personal experiences of having himself been mistreated by the police.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation, first reported by The Washington Post, had not yet been announced.
Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson did not immediately return a call seeking comment about the Justice Department investigation.
Police have said the shooting followed a scuffle that broke out after Wilson told Brown and a friend to move out of the street and onto a sidewalk. Police say Wilson was pushed into his squad car and physically assaulted. Some witnesses have reported seeing Brown's arms up in the air before the shooting in an act of surrender. An autopsy paid for by Brown's family concluded that he was shot six times, twice in the head.

The new investigation, though, goes far beyond the circumstances of the shooting. It will look at the actions of a police department that is predominantly white even though Ferguson is about 70 percent black.
Some in Ferguson have said police disproportionately target black motorists during traffic stops. A 2013 report by the Missouri attorney general's office found that Ferguson police stopped and arrested black drivers nearly twice as frequently as white motorists but were also less likely to find contraband among the black drivers.
The Justice Department's civil rights division routinely investigates individual police departments when there are allegations of systemic use-of-force violations, racial bias or other problems. The department says it's opened more than twice as many investigations into police department in the past five years as were opened in the previous five years. Among those that have recently come under investigation is the Albuquerque, New Mexico, department, which was the subject of a harshly critical report in April that faulted the police for a pattern of excessive force and called for an overhaul of its internal affairs unit.
Normally, the federal investigation encourages significant changes to policies and practices. The investigations sometimes end in an agreement known as a consent decree, which lays out changes that the department must make.

Blu Cantrell melted down Wednesday, September 3. The singer was spotted running through a neighborhood in Santa Monica, California, screaming that she had been given poisonous gas by someone, according to TMZ.
The incident happened at 2 in the morning and prompted a 911 call by a witness. When police arrived Blu, real name Tiffany Cobb, continued to act strangely. She asked if they knew who she was and referred to herself as a "one hit wonder."
Cops took her to the hospital for a psychiatric evaluation. Her current condition is unknown.
The 38-year old singer burst onto the music scene in 2001 with her debut album, So Blu, led by the hit single "Hit Em Up Style (Oops)."
Blu was unable to duplicate that success on her 2003 album, Bittersweet. She has been M.I.A. from the music scene for some time.

War Machine appeared in a Las Vegas courtroom on Wednesday, September 3, to enter a plea on 32 felony charges stemming from a brutal attack on his former girlfriend, porn star Christy Mack, and her house guest Corey Thomas.
The mixed martial arts fighter faces charges of strangulation, attempted murder, sexual assault, burglary, coercion, kidnapping and more.
War, real name Jonathan Koppenhaver, pleaded not guilty to all charges. His lawyer's request for bond was denied, according to News 3.
Christy Mack and War Machine.
Koppenhaver is accused of beating up Thomas when he found him at Mack's Vegas home on August 8th. After throwing Thomas out of the home, the 32-year old then attacked Mack.
The assault left her with 18 broken bones, a fractured rib, a ruptured liver, and several broken teeth.
Koppenhaver was immediately dropped from the Bellator fighting organization by it's President Scott Coker. The fighter was the subject of a one week manhunt until he was tracked down and arrested at an extended stay America Hotel in Simi Valley, California
He initially faced up to 32 years in prison before more charges were added. Koppenhaver is now facing life behind bars. Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson says some of the additional charges stem from incidents that happened during the fighter's nearly year-long relationship with Mack.

Fans have been wanting to see Cassidy step back into the battle rap game for quite a while, but he's resisted the idea because he didn't feel promoters were offering enough money.
The Philadelphia emcee turned down a $40,000 offer from one organization and $100,000 from Total Slaughter.
The right offer has now come through. In December Cass will take home $250,000 to battle Dizaster at FilmOn/Fresh Coast's "Ether" event.
Niggas tweeting I should have took the 40k offer! #FOH I just got offered 250k #BiddingWar. . Gotta spend that chicken 2 get me in the ring
— DA HUSTLA (@CASSIDY_LARSINY) July 29, 2014It's the biggest rap payday for one emcee to date. Cass told Vlad TV that $200,000 of the fee was paid up front. As far as battling Dizaster, Cass said that was the promoter's decision.
"I ain't decide to battle Dizaster. I ain't got no picks," Cass told DJ Vlad. "A lot of ignorant people commenting on the social media. That's why I ain't even started tweeting until this video go out so they could see what it is. The reason why I accepted this is because the chicken was right. They gave me crazy chicken. More money than anybody made off battling. What I feel as though I deserve. I ain't got no picks, whoever y'all wanna pick, I don't give a fuck. I'm not trying to find the easy win or a hard win. Whoever y'all got in mind that you wanna bring up it's gonna be the same result. I guess the nigga's that was putting it together got a relationship with Dizaster, so they picked him."
Some people may think Dizaster is going to be an easy win for Cassidy, but when he's on his "A" game Diz is a problem for any opponent. He recently spoke with 15MofeRadio about the event.
“I have enough time [to prepare],” Diz said. “I’m definitely gonna be extremely versatile. I’m definitely the right guy to battle Cass because I’m gonna bring so many different styles and elements into this. I’m just gonna make it an extreme classic. People are gonna be proud of what I’m gonna do. I think everybody should really support me because Cass really, legitimately thinks this shit is funny and that he’s just better than everybody and that he’s above battling. I don’t know how much he really thinks that himself but it seems that that’s what he’s [saying].”
Who is your pick to win?
