Over 100 protesters marched through the Galleria Mall near St. Louis, blocked the aisle and forcing some stores to temporarily close.

According to the Saint Louis Post-Dispatch, the protest eventually moved on to the West County Center, during which protesters laid on the floor, representing the time that Michael Brown’s body was left on the street.
