On August 25, 2020, amid the unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin after the police shooting of Jacob Blake, Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois, shot and killed two men and wounded another man in the arm during confrontations at two locations.[1][2] He was armed with a Smith & Wesson M&P15 rifle,[3] and the individual wounded by Rittenhouse was armed with a handgun.[4] Rittenhouse had said he was there to provide medical aid and he was carrying a medkit.[5][6]

At the first location, Rittenhouse was pursued by a group, including Kenosha resident Joseph Rosenbaum.[7] A gunshot was fired into the air by a third party, and Rosenbaum lunged at Rittenhouse and attempted to take his rifle. Rittenhouse then fired four times at Rosenbaum, who died shortly afterwards.[8][9] At the second location, Rittenhouse tripped while fleeing and a man kicked him. Rittenhouse fired at the man twice but missed.[10][11] Protesters approached Rittenhouse while he was still on the ground, and Silver Lake resident Anthony Huber struck Rittenhouse with a skateboard and struggled for control of his rifle. Rittenhouse then fired at Huber once, killing him.[12][9] West Allis resident Gaige Grosskreutz then approached Rittenhouse while holding a handgun, and Rittenhouse shot him once, severing his right biceps.[12][13]

Rittenhouse was arrested and charged with multiple counts of homicide and unlawful possession of a firearm, and another teen was arrested and charged with unlawfully supplying Rittenhouse's rifle.[14] Rittenhouse's attorneys say he acted in self-defense upon hearing firearm discharge and in response to the physical confrontations from protesters.[1] Public sentiment and media coverage of the shootings was polarized.[15] The trial for Rittenhouse began on November 1, 2021, in Kenosha.[16]
