WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Justice Department is launching a civil rights probe into the police department in Ferguson, Missouri, several weeks after a white officer shot an unarmed black teenager, sparking racial unrest, the Washington Post reported on Wednesday.

Citing two federal law enforcement officials, the Post said the investigation would also look at the practices of other police departments in St. Louis County.

The investigation could be announced as soon as Thursday afternoon and will be conducted by the department’s civil rights division, the Post said.
