Chris “Badger” Thomas RIGHT WING TRIBUNE–OPINION
At least three people were shot, including two fatally, after gunfire rang out in Kenosha, Wis., overnight as protests against the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake on Sunday turned violent for a third-straight night Tuesday, Fox News reports.
A 17-year-old suspect has been arrested in connection to at least one of the two shooting deaths amid the unrest Tuesday night in Kenosha, Wis., Illinois police confirmed on Wednesday.
Kyle Rittenhouse was arrested in his hometown of Antioch, Ill., Wednesday on suspicion of intentional first-degree homicide, Commander Norman Johnson of the Antioch Police Department said. Antioch is about 20 miles southwest of Kenosha.
Rittenhouse was a “fugitive of justice” and “fled the state of Wisconsin with the intent to avoid prosecution” on a first-degree intentional homicide charge filed in Kenosha County, according to court records in Lake County, Ill., obtained by Fox News.

Despite the 8pm curfew that was created to put an end to the rioting and looting, Kenosha violence escalated into pure chaos.
Earlier Wednesday, Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that one victim had been shot in the head and another in the chest late Tuesday, just before midnight. Beth didn’t know where the other person was shot, but video posted on social media showed someone had been shot in the arm.

What is being stated is that a Wisconsin militia went into Kenosha to protect businesses from being destroyed from the rioters. Several gunshots were heard throughout the nights complete anarchy in the streets as, it appears, 1 militia member fired and struck a white rioter in the head.
The report about the victim being shot by a man guarding a business was collaborated by investigative reporter and independent journalist Drew Hernandez.

“It appears an armed citizen was defending the car dealership and opened fire on the rioter who was attempting to vandalize or burn the dealership down,” Hernandez wrote on Twitter. “Before this shooting took place, the rioters were planning to burn down their ‘next car dealership.’” Breitbart reported.
Now all the nation can do is wait as the sun rises and evaluate the destruction as well as wait for responses from the State and at this point, the federal level may attempt to intervene.
