Prosectors in Kenosha, Wisconsin have charged the teen responsible for purchasing the assault rifle used by Kyle Rittenhouse amid violent protests where he allegedly killed two people and injured a third. According to the criminal complaint, 19-year-old Dominick David Black has been charged with two counts of intentionally giving a person under 18 a weapon, causing death.

Fox News reports:

He was arrested Nov. 6. The complaint said Black purchased the AR-15 rifle for Rittenhouse to use and stored it at his stepfather’s home. Rittenhouse, 17, was not able to legally purchase a firearm on his own.

Authorities said the pair went to Kenosha in an effort to protect businesses amid unrest over the police Aug. 23 shooting of Jacob Blake. Black volunteered to break a citywide curfew to protect the Car Source business lot on Aug. 25 and asked Rittenhouse to go with him, the complaint says.

Black told police that when they went to his stepfather’s house he was concerned about Rittenhouse having the gun because he wasn’t 18, but if he told Rittenhouse he couldn’t have it Rittenhouse “would have thrown a fit,” police reports said.

During the unrest, Rittenhouse fatally shot two protesters — Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber — and wounded a third, Gaige Grosskreutz.

Rittenhouse faces charges of first-degree intentional homicide and attempted intentional homicide charges. His attorneys maintain that Rittenhouse acted in self-defense against a violent mob chasing after him. Black was released from Kenosha Couty jail on a $2,500 bond. Rittenhouse was extradited to Wisconsin where he is held on a $2 million bond.

  1. Don’t go after the Marxist thugs/terrorists that attacked the boy/man trying to protect someone else’s property. This is America? Has anyone who attacked HIM been arrested? How about all the COVID violations of these thugs?

    1. Just like County Commissionar Whitley in Ft. Worth, they want authority to HURT people for not obeying orders. Whitley; wants to be able to fine us for not wearing a mask. I want to remove him from office for abusing his authority. And I can guarantee you that ALL Democrats want to disarm you and prevent you from defending lives or property.

  2. U shouldn’t be jailed for self=defense, this was self=defense, in every way, he was being assaulted, by left=wing radicals, and did what anyone would do, to protect their life.

  3. Here we have a situation. The DA should be the one being charged. Kyle defended himself from a most definite attack. And once again, black men believe they can win no matter what is going on. They were planning to beat him, maybe to death. This is who they were. And now, they are dead. I can assure you that had they not been chasing him, they would not have DIED

  4. It is increasingly apparent that only liberal, marxist, antifa, blm rioters are immune from prosecution. law aiding citizens exercising their 1st amendment rights are heinously prosecuted. people who voted democrat? — stupid is as stupid does, unfortunately the rest of us also pay the price. I will NEVER say “sic bider/pelosi”

  5. the media, the democrats, the judges are all upside down, inside out, and spinning like tops.
    I have never in my life been so ashamed of our government. If the lies don’t stop, then some lives will have to pay the price. This cannot continue. jwstx
