On Friday, DNC delegate Keith Rose was arrested during a Michael Brown protest in Ferguson, Missouri, which resulted in a Ferguson police officer being critically injured.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Ferguson Police Officer Travis Brown is “fighting for his life” after 28-year-old suspect Elijah Gantt hit Brown outside a police station after protesters attempted to remove a perimeter fence during the protest.
Gantt, who has been a longtime Black Lives Matter activist, was charged with first-degree assault.
Keith Rose, who is a DNC alternate delegate and serves as a member of the City of St. Louis’ Civilian Oversight Board, was also present at the protest and was arrested for allegedly kicking in a gate outside the Ferguson Police station.
Rose has since been charged with first-degree property damage and was released on a $500 bond.
The Missouri Democratic Party announced, “Keith Rose has decided to voluntarily withdraw as an uncommitted alternate delegate to the DNC.”

Per The New York Post:
Two new graphic videos were released showing the moment a Ferguson, Missouri, police officer was violently knocked over by a suspect during a Michael Brown protest on Friday – an incident that has left the officer in critical condition.
The protest came just 10 days before the start of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and among those arrested Friday was Keith Rose, a St. Louis alternate delegate to the DNC and a member of the City of St. Louis’ Civilian Oversight Board which reviews allegations of police misconduct, Fox 2 reports. Rose has since withdrawn as an alternate DNC delegate.
“Keith Rose has decided to voluntarily withdraw as an uncommitted alternate delegate to the DNC,” the Missouri Democratic Party said in a statement.
