Graphic video of the shooting emerged on social media late Sunday, sparking angry protests that prompted the city to declare an emergency curfew.
Governor Tony Evers said;
While we do not have all of the details yet, what we know for certain is that he is not the first Black man or person to have been shot or injured or mercilessly killed at the hands of individuals in law enforcement in our state or our country
Kenosha police have asked the Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation to take over the investigation into the shooting. The findings will go to District Attorney Michael D. Graveley.
His office will determine whether to bring any charges against the officers. Graveley said the investigation is in “its earliest stages.”
