Another Angle Of Man Armed With AR-15 Being Chased By Rioters, Ends Up Shooting Multiple Individuals

KENOSHA, Wis. (Reuters) - Three people were shot, one of them fatally, as gunfire broke out on the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin, on the third straight night of unrest sparked by the police shooting of a Black man, the New York Times reported, citing law enforcement.

Social media videos posted early Wednesday showed a gun battle involving civilians, with several people rushing a man with a long gun who apparently had been knocked to the ground. The video shows him firing at the people rushing towards him, one of whom falls to the ground. Other shots are heard in the background.

“Stay down, stay down!” someone yells.

“Keep going this way,” a person says, apparently trying to guide others to safety as shots are fired.

Another social media video shows a man lying between parked cars with an apparent gunshot wound to the head, and several people rush to his aid.

A third video shows a man with a severe arm wound sitting on the ground who is tended to by a man with a long gun as police approach.

Throughout the protests, several people have been carrying rifles, whether slung over their shoulder or at the ready while standing guard outside business to protect them from looters or arsonists.
