In Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Sunday people took to the streets to protest the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse Friday and to remember his victims, chanting “Anthony and Jojo” as they walked the same route Rittenhouse took when he shot and killed Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and wounded Gaige Grosskreutz during protests in August 2020 that followed the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Joseph Rosenbaum was the first person Rittenhouse shot with his AR-15-style rifle. Joseph Rosenbaum was 36 years old. He had been released that same day from a Milwaukee hospital where he had been treated for a suicide attempt. He was unarmed when he was shot by Rittenhouse. Rosenbaum was shot four times, first in the groin, then in the hand and thigh as he faced Rittenhouse and then was shot in the head and in the back.
After Rittenhouse killed Rosenbaum, several protesters who believed Rittenhouse was an active shooter begin chasing him. 26-year-old Anthony Huber tried to disarm him by hitting him with what he had in his hand, his skateboard. Rittenhouse shot and killed him within seconds. Gaige Grosskreutz was the only person who survived being shot by Rittenhouse. Anthony Huber’s parents, Karen Bloom and John Huber, said they were heartbroken and angry over the verdict which they said did not deliver justice for any of Rittenhouse’s victims. This is Anthony Huber’s father John Huber responding to the verdict on CNN.
