Suspect in custody after two shot dead during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin

A teenage suspect is in custody after two people were killed and another was injured in a shooting that took place during overnight protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, following the police shooting of Jacob Blake.

Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois, is expected to be charged with first-degree intentional homicide, according to police from his home city which is about 15 to 20 miles away from Kenosha. The suspect is being held at a juvenile facility in Illinois pending an extradition hearing to transfer him to Wisconsin. He has been assigned a public defender and will make his first court appearance on Friday, the Associated Press reported.
