Police shooting

The Jacob Blake incident in Kenosha, WI on Sunday August 23 2020

After a black man was shot seven times in the back by a police officer in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Sunday, 23 August, people angry about police violence began protesting. Limited law enforcement in Kenosha has led to individuals and groups taking the law into their own hands during the unrest, a spokesman for the Wisconsin Professional Police Association said. An overnight curfew is in place in the city from 19:00 - 07:00, lasting until Sunday. Community leaders have urged people to respect the curfew; however the violent protestors are obviously violating the curfew. We call on all curfew violators to be arrested.

There have been days of demonstrations and unrest after Mr Blake's shooting.

On Tuesday, a small group threw fireworks and water bottles at police in Kenosha, who responded with rubber bullets and tear gas.

Videos from Tuesday show armed civilians in military clothes congregating outside buildings in the city. Kenosha had descended into "anarchy" after being "abandoned" by authorities. A few days later, after a few deaths among the protestors and horrible arson and destruction of property, more than 200 FBI agents are being sent to Kenosha to try to bring order to the city, and the White House says 2,000 National Guard members are available to go.
