In the eastern Missouri city of Ferguson, police say two officers guarding a police station were ambushed and shot on Tuesday. They both survived, but this is just the latest round of violence in a tense suburb in America.

在弗格森東部城市密蘇里，警方稱周二時候兩名警員在警局執(zhí)勤中被槍殺。兩個人都幸存了下來，但這是美國郊區(qū)爆發(fā)的新一輪暴力事件。

It started last August, when a white police officer named Darren Wilson shot and killed an unarmed 18-year-old named Michael Brown.

事件發(fā)生在八月份，當(dāng)時一名叫做威爾遜的警員槍殺了一名無辜的18歲黑人布朗。

Large protests followed, with demonstrators saying racism factored into the shooting and the investigation. Some protests were violent.

在爆發(fā)了一系列抗議事件之后示威者稱槍擊事件和調(diào)查活動中充滿了種族歧視主義。其中一些抗議活動是暴力性行為。

A grand jury later cleared Officer Wilson of any wrongdoing. That led to another wave of protests. Parts of the city were damaged or burned.

大陪審團(tuán)隨后清除了警員威爾遜的執(zhí)法不當(dāng)行為罪行。這一舉動直接刺激了另一起大規(guī)?？棺h的發(fā)生。該城市部分地區(qū)都遭到了破壞或者燒毀。

The U.S. Justice Department also investigated Brown`s shooting. It said Officer Wilson did not break federal civil rights law in a way that could be prosecuted. It didn`t charge him.

美國司法部同樣也對布朗槍擊事件進(jìn)行了調(diào)查。其表示警員威爾遜這一行為并沒有違反聯(lián)邦法律會被控告，從而也沒有對其提出控告。

But it did release a report that said it found regular racial discrimination in Ferguson, both by police and the city`s court system.

但是司法部也確實(shí)發(fā)布報(bào)告稱其在弗格森地區(qū)發(fā)現(xiàn)了種族主義歧視現(xiàn)象，警察系統(tǒng)和該城市法院系統(tǒng)都有發(fā)現(xiàn)。

Earlier this week, Ferguson`s police chief resigned. The shooting of the two officers happened at the end of a protest. Afterward, everyone from the police to Michael Brown`s parents to U.S. government officials spoke out against the shooting. Authorities launched a manhunt for the attackers.

本周早些時候弗格森警察局長辭職。而槍擊兩名警員事件就發(fā)生在抗議之后。從警局到布朗家人，到美國政府都對此次槍擊事件提出反抗。當(dāng)局對襲擊者已經(jīng)發(fā)布逮捕命令。
