As America continues protesting over George Floyd’s murder, the police are still shooting unarmed black men. In the midst of the Floyd protests, Rayshard Brooks was killed. Now, Kenosha, Wisconsin is the site of the latest shooting.
Just two days after the Lafayette, Louisiana shooting, Jacob Blake gets shot in Kenosha, Wisconsin. His shooting, in some respects, was similar to the Louisiana shooting. Both instances saw the men trying to get away from the cops.
Jacob Blake, age 29, was shot seven times by the Kenosha, Wisconsin police. The young man was shot, but not killed, currently in critical condition, after stopping to break up a fight. On Twitter, people were encouraging him to pull through, but he died as we were publishing this story, as his fiance shared the above image with Sarah Thamer, of WISN.
