Reporters arrested in Ferguson sue St. Louis police

Four journalists are suing St. Louis police over their arrests during the Ferguson, Missouri protests last August. They claim to have been detained and mistreated by the officers even though their press credentials were in plain view.

 The suit was filed Monday by US citizen Ryan Devereaux of The  Intercept and three German nationals residing in the US – Ansgar  Graw of Die Welt, Frank Herrmann of the Rheinische Post group and  freelance reporter Lukas Hermsmeier.
