Police Shooting That Sparked Riots In Kenosha Wisconsin

At 5:11 p.m., Kenosha police officers were called to the 2800 block of 40th Street in Kenosha for a domestic incident. The man, identified in multiple reports as Jacob Blake, was shot by officers afterward.

Graphic video of officers shooting Blake has begun circulating on social media. It shows the man walking to a vehicle with two officers behind him, when the shooting happens.

The video appeared to have been taken from across the street. As described by The Associated Press, three officers are first heard shouting and pointing their weapons at a man who walks around the front of a sport-utility vehicle parked on the street.

The man opens the driver’s side door and leans inside, and one officer grabs his shirt from behind and fires into the vehicle, The Associated reported.

At least seven shots are heard in the video. It was not clear whether more than one officer fired, the AP reported.

Police said officers provided immediate aid to the man, who was transported by a Flight for Life helicopter to Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee. He was in serious condition, police said.
