The Ferguson police officer who was shot in the arm was released from the hospital as the search for the shooter continues, police say.
The officer was shot during a routine patrol near the new Ferguson Community Center and away from the protests related to the death of Michael Brown.
The body camera worn by the officer was off at the time, though officials do not know why.
Officials say that the officer saw the suspect standing behind the community center and gave chase after he fled. The suspect turned and fired at the officer, striking him in the left arm.

well at least this time they cant start their riots! Better start going door to door to try to find the suspect, because any of the cop haters in Ferguson would hide the suspect!
11:27 - they better hide him well - I think the cops will make it so he never goes to trial.....
11:27 you are right unfortunately. If it had been a regular citizen shot they'd investigate the case for about 3 hours, wouldn't solve it, and we would never hear about it again. But because it was a cop who was shot they'll have drones, armored vehicles, and 24 hour surveillance until the suspect is "captured" a.k.a. killed. Just like in PA right now.
Standing. Behind a Community Center.
Have you ever heard of such a heinous crime?
I haven't! It's just totally unacceptable.
