Nov. 24 marks five years since the aftermath of the grand jury decision not to indict Darren Wilson, the Ferguson police officer responsible for the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. Ferguson received a lot of attention during and after the unrest, but the town of Dellwood also experienced upheaval. After the grand jury decision, five of Dellwood’s stores were looted and 13 businesses were set on fire. In this segment, Dellwood Mayor Reggie Jones and business owner Kurtis Barks of Complete Auto Body and Repair discuss how the city recovered from the damage and where Dellwood is headed in the future.
