Nearly two years after the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown put Ferguson in the national spotlight, city leaders are working to fill more than a dozen vacancies in the Missouri town's police department. Mayor James Knowles III said Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2016, that finding qualified applicants has been tough and that diversity continues to be a goal. (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel, File) (AP)
