The Vancouver Sun reports in its Thursday edition CTV says its Los Angeles bureau chief has been charged a year after his arrest while covering the protests in Ferguson, Mo. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Sun says the network reports that Tom Walters is facing a charge of interfering with a police officer. Mr. Walters was arrested last August while trying to ask a question of a Missouri Highway Patrol officer, and later released without charge. The incident was captured on video. CTV says Mr. Walters recently received a summons to appear in a St. Louis court this month, on allegations he failed to comply with police commands to disperse from West Florissant Avenue. The network last year condemned Mr. Walters's arrest as a "gross violation of the First Amendment protections in the United States and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms." Several journalists were arrested while covering the Ferguson protests. At least two other media outlets say their reporters have been charged. Shares of BCE, which owns the CTV network, closed Wednesday at $53.50, up 10 cents on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
