Michael Brown was killed. From witness accounts, he was totally innocent. The police statements have changed so many times (first he had committed petty theft at Quick Trip, then he fought the officer for the gun, today the officer had a "swollen face," etc.) that you can't help but side with Michael Brown. People are PISSED here.

They seem to have stopped.
The first night, they lit Quick Trip on fire (the one that supposedly reported Michael Brown for theft) and it's a gas station next to apartment complexes. They also robbed a hair salon, looted the Quick Trip, looted Auto Zone and stomped an employee, broke in to a shoe store, etc. The next day they started breaking in to houses, looted a Taco Bell and stomped an employee and during the night they looted a Shoe Carnival in South City (a completely different part of town). 8 looters have been arrested and had absolutely no connection to Ferguson at all.
Today a protester got shot in the forehead (and survived, somehow) and she seems to think it was some of the looters
