US President Barack Obama is sending Attorney General Eric Holder1 to Ferguson, Missouri, to investigate the fatal police shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white policeman.

The decision follows days of violent protests in the St. Louis suburb.

Holder has already authorized2 a federal autopsy3 on the body of Michael Brown, the unarmed 18-year-old who was shot on Aug. 9.

An independent autopsy results determined4 that Brown was shot at least six times, including twice in the head.

Missouri's governor, Jay Nixon, called in the National Guard early Monday after police again used tear gas to quell5 protests that have taken place nightly since Brown's death.

Obama says he can't make any judgments6 about the situation in Ferguson until the investigation7 is complete.

Liberian authorities are continuing to search for 17 people who left an Ebola medical centre over the weekend after it was attacked by looters.

Officials say the weekend chaos8 in Monrovia highlights the growing unease in Liberia amid the mounting Ebola death toll9.

Liberia has reported over 400 Ebola-related deaths so far, the highest number of Ebola deaths among the affected10 West African countries.

The overall death toll stands at some 1,100.

Meantime, Guinea is stepping up sanitary11 measures along its borders with Liberia and Sierra Leone, to prevent people infected with the Ebola virus from entering or leaving the country.
