The Daily Dot reports:
Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, of Antioch, Illinois has been charged with first-degree murder according to documents reviewed by the Daily Dot. According to the Lake County, Illinois Clerk of Courts public records, obtained by the Daily Dot, Rittenhouse has been charged with first-degree murder in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and labeled a “fugitive from justice.” The complaint states that Rittenhouse “fled the state of Wisconsin with intent to avoid prosecution for that offense.”
Two were killed and a third transported to the hospital with serious, non-life-threatening injuries, local police reported in a statement. The protests were sparked by the shooting of a Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man shot by police on Sunday night. A Facebook profile purportedly belonging to the teen is rife with pro-police content. In his profile pic, he poses with a high-powered rifle that appears identical to the Kenosha shooter’s.

UPDATE: Kyle Rittenhouse is currently turning all social media outlets on private. Most likely deleting all evidence of glorifying violence, guns, shooting, police, racism. pic.twitter.com/uF9rmJO0PR
