Shocking new details have been revealed by prosecutors in Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial during opening statements.
According to prosecutors, Kyle Rittenhouse chased down an unarmed man and shot him four times in the back last August during a night of unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time of the attacks used an AR-15-style weapon and fired eight shots, four shots at Joseph Rosenbaum, two shots at an unarmed unknown individual, one shot at an unarmed Anthony Huber, and one shot at Gaige Grosskreutz.
As we reported, Rosenbaum, 36, and Huber, 26, died as a result.
