DELLWOOD Ferguson-area businesses grappled Monday with the aftermath of weekend looting that left windows shattered and store shelves empty.
The violence started Sunday evening in response to the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. By the time it ended early Monday, more than two dozen businesses in Ferguson and neighboring Dellwood were damaged or looted.
Monday found near bumper-to-bumper traffic up and down the ravaged stretch of West Florissant Avenue, where many businesses even those untouched by violence remained closed.
Among those striving to put things in order was Zisser Tire & Auto, where workers spent the day installing plywood over the shattered remains of massive glass panels that once bordered the showroom on three sides.
