(4,136 posts)The last 2 shot? If so, chasing a so-called "active shooter" down a street, while you are unarmed, is Darwin award type stuff. (Yes, GG was armed, but didn't fire.) Chasing is usually considered an "aggressive" move, as is striking someone with a skateboard.
From your article:
: Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, was arrested on Wednesday at his home in Antioch, Illinois, 20 miles from Kenosha
IIRC, during testimony, his mother drove him to the police station, and turned himself in.
: He is accused of killing two people at protests over Jacob Blake's shooting Tuesday while 'defending' the city
: Videos from Tuesday night's protests had already shown a gunman, later identified as Rittenhouse, being tailed by protesters as he ran down a street before he fired three or four shots hitting at least two people
Yes, two people. That were chasing him. Hitting them at basically contact distance. While he was sitting on his backside, a poor defensive posture for someone not having a weapon.
: Now a new earlier clip appears to shed light on how the ordeal unfolded after a first man was shot in the head
Again, after being chased into a car lot, and running out of running room.
: The victim is seen on the ground while the gunman stands nearby before running away
Running, because a group of people are coming at him, yelling. I'd run, too.
: It is then that the second and third shootings are thought to have happened after the gunman was chased
AHA! "was chased". He was being pursued by several angry individuals, calling for his blood.
