President Barack Obama says his thoughts and prayers are with the two police officers who were wounded in a shooting in Ferguson, Missouri.
The president took to Twitter on Thursday to relay his prayers to the officers who were shot during a protest outside Ferguson police headquarters.
Obama also denounced violence against police, writing that the "path to justice is one all of us must travel together."
Obama signed the tweet with his initials, which indicates he personally composed the note.
The officers have been released from the hospital. One was shot in the face, while the other was shot in the shoulder.

The family of 18-year-old Michael Brown, whose fatal shooting by a Ferguson police officer last year sparked widespread protests, is condemning the recent shooting of two Ferguson officers.
The family released a statement through their attorney, saying the shootings during a protest early Thursday were "senseless." They say they won't tolerate "any kind of violence directed toward members of law enforcement."
Brown's family also echoed sentiments by local activists denouncing the actions of "stand-alone agitators" who they say are trying to derail the nonviolent nationwide movement to address police brutality.
The family says its thoughts and prayers are with the officers and their families.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder says the shooting of two police officers in Ferguson, Missouri, was "inexcusable and repugnant."
Holder released a statement Thursday condemning violence against any public safety officials, calling it "cowardly."
He cited the early morning shootings in Ferguson that wounded two officers, along with this week's death of a deputy federal marshal in Louisiana and last week's killing of an officer in Philadelphia.
Holder says "such senseless acts of violence threaten the very reforms that non-violent protesters in Ferguson and around the country" have been working toward for several months.
He says he hopes for the full and speedy recovery of the Ferguson officer, and said the U.S. Justice Department stands ready to assist in the investigation."
