At least one person shot dead as Kenosha Black Lives Matter protests continue

DW, 26 Aug 2020
At least one person has been shot dead and a number of others injured during a third night of protests in the US city of Kenosha. Social media footage appears to show civilians with guns and one victim with a head wound. The gun fire started in the early hours of Wednesday, after hundreds of protesters defied a dawn-to-dusk curfew and clashed with police, who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets. The unrest was sparked after police shot Jacob Blake, a Black resident, seven times in his back. Blake's attorney and family said the shots left Blake paralyzed and fighting for his life.
