http://media4.popsugar-assets.com/fi...diSh.large.jpgThe ******r who fatally shot Michael Brown has resigned from the Ferguson Police Department. According to attorney Neil J. Bruntrager, ******r Darren Wilson made the decision because of "credible threats" to the department. "It was my hope to continue in police work, but the safety of other police ******rs and the community are of paramount importance to me," Darren wrote in his resignation letter, which emerged on Saturday. "It is my hope that my resignation will allow the community to heal." In an interview with The New York Times, Adolphus Pruitt, president of the NAACP's St. Louis chapter, said the resignation "**t only fulfills one of the demands of the protesters, but also provides for one of the steps necessary for the wholesale reconstructions of law enforcement in Ferguson."

It's been nearly a week since a grand jury in Ferguson, MO, decided **t to indict Darren for the death of Michael Brown, an unarmed, African-American teenager who was involved in a confrontation with the ******r on Aug. 9. In the months since, protests against police brutality and the grand jury's decision have garnered international headlines and an outpouring of reactions on social media. Although Thanksgiving reportedly brought about a reprieve, the protestors returned and police stood guard throughout the weekend. Keep reading to see pictures from Missouri on Saturday.
