U.N. spokesman Stephane
Dujarric said Mustafa and U.N.
Humanitarian Coordinator
James Rawley released a new
appeal Tuesday for $551 million
for emergency aid in Gaza, up
from-the $367 million requested
in Aug. 1.
He said the assistance is need-
ed for food and basic supplies,
expanding access to health,
water and education, protec-
tion of the population and psy-
cho-social support. He said the
aid will be provided through
the government, U.N. agencies
and international and local aid
groups.
Dujarric said Rawley stressed
that the appeal is not a solu-
tion and called for fundamental
changes including a continued
cease-fire, the full lifting of the
blockade and a political solution.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, the
Israeli navy arrested four Pal-
estinian fishermen and seized
their boat Tuesday, a Gaza
official said, in one of the first
instances of friction between
the sides since the Gaza war
ended last month.
The incident occurred off
the northern Gaza town of Beit
Lahiya, said Nizar Ayyash of
the Gaza Fishermen's Union. He
provided no additional details.
The Israeli military said two
vessels were involved in the
incident. It said the vessels were
operating outside of their per-
mitted maritime limit, and after
ignoring requests to move closer
to shore, were boarded by naval
personnel and seized.
Israel and Hamas-led mili-
tants in Gaza ended 50 days of
intensive fighting on Aug. 26 and
committed to enter into indirect
truce talks in Cairo aimed at
developing a sustainable road-
map for the future of the dense-
ly-populated coastal territory.

Lesley McSpadden, the mother of Michael Brown, listens during a news conference Tuesday in Ferguson, Mo.
Ferguson city leaders plan to
reform afner police shootin

Review board set
to guide police
department
FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) - City
leaders in Ferguson, where the
fatal shooting of an unarmed
black 18-year-old by a white
police officer sparked days of
sometimes violent protests, say
they will establish a review board
to help guide the police depart-
ment and make other changes to
fix the city's relationship with its
residents.
The Ferguson City Council
was set to meet Tuesday for the
first time since the Aug. 9 shoot-
ing of Michael Brown by officer
Darren Wilson. The shooting
exposed an undercurrent of
racial unrest in Ferguson and
other nearby suburbs in mostly
black communities of north St.
Louis County.
Changes the City Council
plans to make include reduc-
ing the revenue from court fines
used for general city operations
and reforming court procedures,
according to a statement from
a public relations firm hired by
Ferguson. Critics say reliance
on court revenue and traffic
fines to fund city services more
heavily- penalizes low-income

defendants who can't afford pri-
vate attorneys and who are often
jailed for not promptly paying
those fines.
"The overall goal of these
changes is to improve trust with-
in the community and increase
transparency, particularly with-
in Ferguson's courts and police
department," Councilman Mark
Byrne said in the statement. "We
want to demonstrate to resi-
dents that we take their concerns
extremely seriously."
The U.S. Justice Department
announced last week that it was
launching a broad investiga-
tion into the Ferguson Police
Department, looking for pat-
terns of discrimination. That
inquiry is separate from the one
into Brown's death, which a local
grand jury is also investigating.
Ferguson, a city of 21,000,
is about 70 percent black. Its
53-member police department
has just three black officers. The
mayor and five of the six City
Council members are white.
A 2013 report by the Missouri
attorney general's office found
that Ferguson police stopped
and arrested black drivers nearly
twice as often as white motorists,
but were less likely to find con-
traband among the black drivers.
In the last fiscal year, court
fines and fees accounted for $2.6

million, or nearly one-fifth of the
city budget. That's nearly twice
as much as the city collected two
years earlier.
ArchCity Defenders, a St.
Louis legalgroup that represents
indigent defendants, recently
singled out courts in Bel-Ridge,
Ferguson and Florissant as
"chronic offenders" among a
group of 30 municipal courts
where problems were docu-
mented.
In Ferguson, defendants
described a system so over-
whelmed by crowds that bai-
liffs would lock the door five
minutes after the scheduled
start time -then issue failure to
appear warrants for those who
arrived late.
Police have said the shoot-
ing of Brown came followed a
scuffle after Wilson told Brown
and a friend to move out of the
street and onto a sidewalk.
Some witnesses have reported
seeing Brown's arms in the air
before the shooting. Autopsies
concluded he was shot at least
six times.
On Tuesday morning,
Brown's parents joined about
20 supporters and activists at a
press conference outside police
headquarters to reiterate their
calls for Wilson's immediate
arrest.
