In the aftermath of the August 2020 police shooting of Jacob Blake, protests and unrest occurred in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and around the United States as part of the larger Black Lives Matter movement and ongoing responses to high-profile killings by police officers in 2020.[6] In addition to street protests, marches, and demonstrations, the shooting also led to the 2020 American athlete boycotts.
The demonstrations were marked by daily peaceful protesting followed by confrontations with law enforcement and rioting at night. A state of emergency was declared on August 23, and the National Guard was activated the following day. Further confrontations arose when a group of armed militia members, whom Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth described as vigilantes, arrived with the expressed intent of protecting businesses in the city.[7][8][9][10] On August 25, two protesters were fatally shot and a third was injured by Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois. Rittenhouse was charged with first-degree intentional homicide and other charges; his attorneys have said his actions were self-defense.
Background
Jacob Blake is an African-American man who was shot four times in the back during an arrest by police officer Rusten Sheskey.[11][12] The incident occurred in Kenosha on August 23, 2020, as police officers were attempting to arrest Blake. Blake was unsuccessfully tasered.[13] He was shot after he opened the door to his SUV and reached into the vehicle.[14] He is expected to survive, but is paralyzed from the waist down.[15][16] He was initially handcuffed to the hospital bed and deputies were posted in his room,[17][18] but the handcuffs and deputies were later removed and a warrant for his arrest was vacated after Blake paid a bond.[19]
Events in Kenosha
Protests and riots
Day 1: August 23
A state of emergency was declared for the county starting at 10:15 p.m., and garbage trucks were used to block 56th Street. Starting at 11:05 p.m., police began using tear gas and rubber bullets in an attempt to disperse crowds, which lasted throughout the night.[20][21] Near midnight, the crowd lit a small fire in front of a ground-floor window of the Kenosha County Courthouse[20] and at least three garbage trucks and a trolley car were lit on fire.[20][21]
By 2:30 a.m., a truck in a used car dealership along Sheridan Road was lit on fire. The fire spread to most of the 100 other cars on the lot, damaging an entrance sign for the nearby Bradford Community Church (it did not spread to the church building itself).[21][22] Businesses in the western portion of downtown were torched and looted in the later hours before dawn.[23] Along with many downtown businesses, buildings surrounding Civic Center Park, including the post office, Reuther High School, the Kenosha County Administration Building, and the Dinosaur Discovery Museum all sustained damage to their front windows and entrance foyers.[24]
Police scanners stated that a Lenco BearCat armored personnel carrier was damaged by protestors, and a video posted by a local newspaper appeared to show an officer being knocked out with a brick.[25][26]
Day 2: August 24
Peaceful demonstrations were held during the day.[27]

Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers activated the Wisconsin National Guard to protect firefighters and critical infrastructure in Kenosha.[29] The ACLU of Wisconsin strongly opposed the move.[30] The county announced a curfew that went into effect 8:00 p.m. on August 24.[31] Metra suspended commuter rail service north of Waukegan station.[32] The Kenosha County exits for Interstate 41/94 were closed off.[30]
Protesters broke a door off its hinges in an effort to forcefully enter the Public Safety Building before being turned back by pepper spray.[33] Teargas was deployed for a second night starting around 8:30 p.m. in an attempt to disperse unlawful crowds gathered near the courthouse, as protesters launched fireworks at police.[34] Another garbage truck was lit on fire,[34] a car dealership was looted and a furniture store torched,[35] while armed gunman appeared to be guarding a downtown gas station.[36] Several streetlights were pulled down and by 1:00 a.m. several businesses downtown were on fire.[35]

Arsonists targeted a Wisconsin Department of Corrections community parole facility[37] and the city's Danish Brotherhood Lodge.[38] Other buildings set on fire included residential apartments and several homes.[27][39] Firefighters worked into the morning of August 25.[40]
The Kenosha Guard, a citizen militia organization with a Facebook group, created an event page named "Armed Citizens to Protect our Lives and Property" on August 24, and by the next evening it had over 5,000 participants. The Kenosha Guard hosted a gathering for militia members to choose locations in the city to protect. Sheriff Beth stated that the presence of militia members created confusion and complicated the situation. Facebook removed the group and page on August 26.[41]
Day 3: August 25
The Kenosha County Board sent a letter to Governor Evers requesting the deployment of an additional 2,000 national guardsmen.[42] Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth asserted that most of the damage was from individuals with no intent to protest and who were not from Kenosha County. Governor Evers declared a state of emergency for the region, sending in 250 troops from the Wisconsin National Guard to the city.[43]
Law enforcement erected a tall fence to protect the courthouse. Protesters attempted to breach the fence line throughout the night but failed.[44][45]

Significant numbers of armed civilians[46] were also on the streets.[47] Police said that such groups had not been invited and were not helpful.[48] Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth described them as "a militia... like a vigilante group."[7] However, cellphone footage showed police thanking armed civilians and giving them bottles of water.[46] Sheriff Beth characterized the officers as "very wrong to say that" to the militia members.[49]
At around 11:45 pm, there was a shooting incident in which two protestors were killed and a third injured. A 17-year-old Illinois resident was arrested the next day and charged with homicide.[46]
Day 4: August 26
Protests continued peacefully with chants and sidewalk art in a park near the courthouse, followed by a march. Riot police and National Guard troops did not have a visible presence.[50]
The Kenosha County Board sent a second letter to Governor Evers requesting the deployment of an additional 1,500 national guardsmen. "Our county is under attack," the board wrote in the letter. "Our businesses are under attack. Our homes are under attack. Our local law enforcement agencies need additional support to help bring civility back to our community."[42]
Later developments
By August 28, 2020, the state had deployed nearly 1,000 National Guard troops and more than 200 federal agents.[51] The Michigan National Guard, Arizona National Guard, and Alabama National Guard all sent troops to assist.[52]
Protests continued daily through August 29, when about 1,000 people participated in a march and rally. Speakers included the father of Jacob Blake, Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes and others who called for police reform legislation. The group marched to the Kesnosha Courthouse chanting "7 bullets, 7 days", "One Person, One Vote" and "No Justice, No Peace".[53]
Two men from Missouri who had traveled to Kenosha, who described themselves as militia members, were arrested on federal gun charges on 1 September.[3] Prosecutors alleged that one of them had told a witness that he was going to Kenosha "with the intention of possibly using the firearms on people".[54]
Visits by political figures
President Donald Trump visited Kenosha on September 1 to see the damage caused by the protests and to praise law enforcement. He participated in a roundtable, but did not meet with Blake or his family.[55][56] In a letter to Trump, Governor Evers had asked him to reconsider his visit over concerns that his presence would hinder efforts to "overcome division".[57] Kenosha Mayor John Antaramian and the city's NAACP branch president had expressed similar reservations, with Antaramian saying the trip was "ill advised"[58] and the NAACP branch president stating it would "only inflame tensions".[59] However, Trump insisted he was going to make the trip.[60] Former governor Scott Walker, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson, and seven Kenosha County board members had encouraged the visit.[61] During his visit, he met with store owners whose property was damaged during the protests with at least one owner refusing to be a part of the event.[62] Trump engaged in a round table discussion on community safety at Mary D. Bradford High School with protestors and supporters lining the streets during his visit.[63]
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden visited Kenosha on September 3. The Biden campaign said he had received "overwhelming requests" from local officials for the Kenosha visit, although it was against the suggestion of the local NAACP president and also Kenosha County Executive Jim Kreuser. During this first campaign visit to Wisconsin, Biden met with Jacob Blake's family and held a community meeting.[64][65]
Damage assessments

City property valued at $2 million was destroyed by rioters, including garbage trucks, street lights and traffic signals.[4] Kenosha's mayor requested $30 million in aid from the State to cover the extensive damage. Damage to private property could be as high as $50 million, according to estimates from the Kenosha Area Business Alliance. This includes the 100 year old Danish Brotherhood Lodge which was burned down, among 100 buildings damaged.[5]
Fatal shooting of protesters
![]() |
On August 25, a civilian armed with an AR-15 style rifle[66] shot three protesters, one of whom was armed with a handgun,[67] during two confrontations. Kenosha resident Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Silver Lake resident Anthony Huber, 26, were killed,[68] while West Allis resident Gaige Grosskreutz, 26, was injured.[69] Prosecution and defense teams acknowledge the shooter to have been Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois.[70][71]
Background
In reaction to the George Floyd protests, former Kenosha alderman Kevin Mathewson had announced the formation of a militia group he called the Kenosha Guard. On August 25, he put out a call on Facebook for "patriots willing to take up arms and defend" Kenosha, which got a heavy online response.[72] Kenosha Mayor John Antaramian and County Sheriff David Beth expressed disapproval of armed civilians patrolling the streets,[73] while police officers were seen in a video giving them water and heard saying "We appreciate you guys, we really do."[74] Sheriff Beth later said that ahead of Tuesday night's protests, a group of armed individuals had asked him to deputize them to patrol the city of Kenosha, which he refused. He said he did not know if Rittenhouse had been part of the group, but said the possibility of such an incident was why he had refused the request.[75]
Rittenhouse has been described as having participated in local police cadet programs and expressing support on social media for the Blue Lives Matter movement and law enforcement.[76][66][77] In the hours leading up to the shooting, Rittenhouse appeared in multiple videos by protesters and bystanders, including in two interviews: One by a livestreamer at a car dealership where he and at the same time a number of other armed men had stationed themselves, the other by a Daily Caller reporter.[78] Some of the men were affiliated with the Kenosha Guard,[79] but it denied any affiliation with Rittenhouse and its leader said he never met or communicated with him.[80] Rittenhouse was seen talking with police officers, as well as offering medical aid to protesters.[81][78] According to his attorneys, after he had heard about a local business owner who wanted help defending his car dealership, he and a friend "armed themselves with rifles" and went to that business.[82] At some point, he left the dealership and was prevented by police from returning.[78]
Shooting
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/51/60th_and_Sheridan_Kenosha_WI.jpg/220px-60th_and_Sheridan_Kenosha_WI.jpg)
The moments of shooting were recorded in cellphone footage from multiple angles.[83] Around 11:45 pm,[84] video footage showed Rittenhouse being pursued across a parking lot.[78] As an unknown person fired a shot nearby, Rosenbaum chased after Rittenhouse, throwing something in his direction,[85][86] identified in some reports as a plastic bag with some unidentified contents.[87] According to Kenosha County prosecutors, Rosenbaum tried to take Rittenhouse's rifle from him.[88] Rittenhouse then fired four shots, hitting Rosenbaum in the groin, back, and left hand. The bullets fractured Rosenbaum's pelvis and perforated his right lung and liver.[89] He also suffered a superficial wound to his left thigh and a graze wound to his forehead.[89] Rittenhouse remained near Rosenbaum and made a phone call as a bystander began administering first aid to Rosenbaum. Rittenhouse was heard saying into his cell phone, "I just killed somebody." He then fled.[90]
In another video, Rittenhouse was filmed as he continued to be chased down the street by several other protesters before tripping.[46] At that point, one of the protestors is heard yelling, "Get his ass". After he fell, one of the men who had been chasing Rittenhouse began to kick and attempt to disarm him, with Rittenhouse firing two shots, missing this man. Another protestor, Anthony Huber, next struck Rittenhouse with a skateboard.[91][92] According to court records and video footage, Huber struck Rittenhouse's shoulder or head/neck area with his skateboard,[89] and tried to grab the rifle.[93] Rittenhouse shot Huber once in the chest, perforating his heart and right lung.[94] After Rittenhouse shot Huber, Gaige Grosskreutz approached Rittenhouse with his hands in the air, initially, then backed away. Grosskreutz can then be seen holding a gun according to footage and court records.[95] Grosskreutz moved again towards Rittenhouse, who fired and hit Grosskreutz in the arm.[96] Gunshots from other sources can be heard at the same time.[78]
Rittenhouse subsequently walked towards police with his hands up and the semi-automatic rifle strapped across his chest; they allowed him to leave or appeared not to acknowledge Rittenhouse, though several witnesses and other protesters shouted for him to be arrested.[83][7] When asked at a press conference why Rittenhouse was not stopped, Kenosha Sheriff David Beth said, "In situations that are high-stress, you have such incredible tunnel vision" and implied officers may not have realized he had been involved in the shooting.[97] Likewise, Kenosha Police Chief Daniel Miskinis claimed that "there was nothing to suggest this individual was involved in any criminal behavior" due to the fact that someone walking towards the police with their hands up was "no longer abnormal" in the wake of the protests.[98]
Investigation and legal process
On August 26, Rittenhouse was arrested in his home state of Illinois on charges of first-degree intentional homicide in the shootings on August 25, according to Lake County, Illinois, Clerk of Courts public records. He was labeled a "fugitive from justice" in the complaint, which alleged that he "fled the state of Wisconsin with intent to avoid prosecution for that offense." He was assigned a public defender and initially scheduled to appear at an extradition hearing on August 28.[99] On that day, a judge granted a request to delay the hearing until September 25 so that Rittenhouse could obtain his own counsel.[71] Under Wisconsin state law,[77] he will be charged as an adult.[2] While awaiting extradition Rittenhouse is being held in a juvenile facility in Illinois.[100]
The complaint against Rittenhouse lists six charges: first degree reckless homicide against Joseph Rosenbaum, first degree recklessly endangering safety against Richard McGinnis (a reporter who interviewed Rittenhouse before the shooting),[101] first degree intentional homicide against Anthony Huber, attempted first degree intentional homicide against Gaige Grosskreutz, first degree recklessly endangering safety against an unknown male victim, and possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18 (the only misdemeanor charge, the others are felonies).[102][103][104] Each felony charge comes with a "use of a dangerous weapon" modifier,[102] which invokes a Wisconsin law that prescribes an addition of no more than five years of imprisonment for each of the charges if found guilty.[105] According to the prosecutors, the gun was "later recovered by law enforcement and identified as a Smith & Wesson AR-15 style .223 rifle".[102]
Attorney L. Lin Wood and the law firm Pierce Bainbridge are representing Rittenhouse.[106] On August 29, 2020 the legal team for Rittenouse released a statement asserting that Rittenhouse acted in self defense[96] and was wrongly arrested.[107]
Responses

U.S. media coverage of Rittenhouse has been polarized, with some conservative coverage focused on defending his actions. Fox News host Tucker Carlson blamed authorities for refusing to enforce the law, said that looting and arson accelerated to murder, and added, "How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would?"[108][109] His comments were met with backlash on social media.[110] Conservative pundit Ann Coulter and retired baseball player Aubrey Huff praised Rittenhouse.[111][112][113] Meanwhile, other coverage has been critical of Rittenhouse's actions and used terms such as "vigilante" and "terrorist" to describe him.[114] Commentators were critical of the fact that Rittenhouse was not immediately arrested despite witnesses shouting that he was the shooter.[115][83][116]
Domestic[117][118][119] and international media[120][121][122] reported that Rittenhouse is a Trump supporter and had attended a Trump rally. President Trump "liked" a tweet that included "Kyle Rittenhouse is a good example of why I decided to vote for Trump."[123][124][125] In public comments, Trump refused to condemn the shootings and showed some support for the contention that Rittenhouse was legitimately acting in self-defense.[126][127][128]
On August 26, 2020, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) called for the resignations of Kenosha Police Chief Daniel Miskinis and of Kenosha Sheriff David Beth. The ACLU statement claimed that Sheriff Beth's deputies fraternized with "white supremacist counter-protestors" during the day of the shooting and did not arrest the shooter. The statement attacked Miskinis for blaming the victims in the shooting, when he said that the violence was the result of the “persons” involved violating curfew.[129] The Kenosha mayor stated that he would not ask the sheriff or police chief to resign.[130]
Events elsewhere
Athletic strikes
In protest of the shooting of Blake, multiple professional athletes refused to play their respective sports contests that week. It started on August 26 when the Milwaukee Bucks of the National Basketball Association (NBA) refused to take the court for a playoff game. Members of other teams in the NBA, Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), Major League Baseball (MLB), and Major League Soccer (MLS) all decided not to play their games on August 26, 2020.[131] The strikes extended into August 27 and 28 when players from the National Hockey League (NHL) boycotted their playoff games.[132] In response to these events, nine National Football League (NFL) teams cancelled their scheduled practices on August 27, 2020.[133]
Other locales
During the Kenosha unrest, there were similar protests and riots in Madison, Wisconsin,[43][134] Atlanta, Georgia,[135] Antioch, Illinois,[136] Minneapolis, Minnesota,[137] New York City,[138][139] and Philadelphia.[140] In California protests emerged in Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Jose.[141][142][143][144] Blake's aunt, Nicole Blake Chafetz of Seattle, encouraged peaceful protests while discouraging the violence and property damage that had occurred during the protests in Seattle.[145] Some of the events involved violence, property destruction, and arrests.
