ST. LOUIS (AP) — Several Ferguson residents have started an effort to force a recall election of the city's mayor following a scathing Justice Department report on the police department and municipal court. Five residents have notified city hall that they've formed a committee to gather signatures to force the recall election of Mayor James Knowles III. The federal report found widespread racial bias in the city's policing and in the municipal court system.
