Ferguson, Mo.’s congressional representative, Rep. William Lacy Clay (D.), warned that there would be a "problem in the streets" if justice were not served for the shooting of Michael Brown.
Face the Nation host Bob Schieffer asked Clay whether Monday's funeral for Brown would reignite tensions in the area. Clay said that the funeral shouldn't provoke violence, but predicted problems if "justice," in regards to the shooting, was not served.
"I'm more concerned if we do not get to the truth and get to what actually happened, and bring justice to this situation, then there is going to be a problem in the streets," Clay said on Face the Nation.
The rioting that has mired the St. Louis suburb in recent weeks has recently subsided as the federal government has visited the community.
