As nightly violence continues to unfold in Portland, more protests devolved into rioting in a Wisconsin city after a police-involved shooting on Sunday.
The city of Kenosha became the scene of violent unrest after a black man was reportedly shot multiple times at close range by a police officer on Sunday. Wisconsin’s Democratic Gov. Tony Evers slammed the “excessive use of force” by law enforcement and gathering crowds soon erupted into angry confrontations with police that were captured in many videos shared on social media.

“Democrat mayors and their ‘sanctuary city’ insanity are supporting this rampant anarchy,” actor James Woods tweeted a video shared by reporter Drew Hernandez of a garbage truck purportedly set ablaze by rioters.
“Democrat #Antifa thugs in Wisconsin. If you vote Republican straight down the ticket, law and order will be restored,” Woods added.
Journalist Andy Ngo shared a video of Black Lives Matter rioters “armed with semi-auto rifles” who allegedly shut down a street in the city and “ordered a Sheriff’s vehicle to stop.”

In other footage of the carnage in Kenosha, Ngo noted that arson attacks affected the far-left Bradford Community Church, where its pro-BLM sign apparently “was consumed in flames.”

Rioters supposedly protesting the shooting of Jacob Blake earlier took to looting businesses and wreaking destruction on the city in some sort of revenge.

Ngo noted that Blake had quite a rap sheet and there was allegedly a warrant out for his arrest. Witnesses at the scene of the shooting said that Blake had been trying to break up a fight between two women which prompted a call for police. Witnesses alleged that police used a Taser on Blake before he was shot several times, according to the Kenosha News. A police report stated that officers administered aid to Blake who was then airlifted to a hospital.
Jacob Blake, the man shot by police in Kenosha, Wisc., has a history of assaulting police. He also has past charges for domestic abuse & a sex crime. There’s a warrent for his arrest. BLM rioters are currently destroying the city to avenge the shooting. https://t.co/BErLeJdPwj pic.twitter.com/JhHcbis5kf
