Shooter at Wisconsin riot arrested and charged with murder

A 17-year-old has been arrested and charged over the shootings in Kenosha, Wisconsin that left two protesters dead and another injured in a possible vigilante attack during the third night of unrest in the city.

Kyle Rittenhouse was arrested on Wednesday afternoon in his hometown of Antioch, Illinois and charged with first degree intentional homicide. Court records say the teenager 'fled the state of Wisconsin with the intent to avoid prosecution for that offense'. Antioch is about 15 miles from Kenosha.

This article shows much clearer pictures of what was happening than any other that I've seen. This, along with all the videos I've seen show a clear case of self defense.
What's going to fuck him though is the fact that he's not old enough to legally possess that weapon, and also that he traveled there, even though it was only 15 miles. Prosecutors can and will argue that he went looking for trouble.
