Protests erupted across the US after a jury decided not to indict a Ferguson police officer in Michael Brown shooting death case.

On Tuesday, protests were held in New York, Chicago and in front of the White House here against the decision not to indict police officer Darren Wilson.

While most of the protesters peacefully assembled on the streets of Ferguson, some of them smashed windows of a police cruiser and tried to overturn it, CNN reported Tuesday.

Police responded by lobbing tear-gas shells.

Michael Brown was shot dead Aug 9, 2014, in Ferguson, Missouri, a suburb of St.Louis.
