Authorities in St. Louis encrypted their radio communications system Friday, just two days after protesters rushed to demonstrate at the scene of a fatal shooting involving a white police officer and a black teen.

The controversial move will limit access to St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department transmissions, which activists, protesters and the media have been listening to via scanners to keep up to date on police activity on the heels of the August killing of Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri and the mass protests that followed.

The change comes at the beginning of a weekend of planned protests called "Ferguson October" aimed at raising awareness of police violence, and the death of Brown and the teen on Wednesday, who relatives identified as Vonderrit D. Myers.

"With the recent events of unrest in our city and around the region, the decision to encrypt the department's radio communication system is paramount in ensuring the safety of the 1,300 officers of this department, as well as the citizens we serve," St, Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said in a statement, which added that in the past, "tactical information" received from the radio communications had been shared on social media, "putting officers and the public at risk."
