An Illinois teenager who is charged with shooting three people, including two fatally, during a Wisconsin protest over police brutality said he used pandemic relief funds to pay for the assault-style rifle that a friend purchased for him.
New video shows police in IL interviewing the sister of Kyle Rittenhouse and his friend, Dominick Black, hours after he's accused of killing two protesters in Kenosha.
Rittenhouse told the Post he had an friend, Dominick Black, buy the AR-15 for him in the spring, with money Rittenhouse received from a government stimulus check.
"Joe, you shouldn't have been down there", she said, adding, "I go between being angry to just being sad - but mostly just sad".
Kyle Rittenhouse is accused of fatally shooting Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and wounding Gaige Grosskreutz during a demonstration on August 25 that followed the police shooting of a Black man named Jacob Blake in Kenosha. "And I got my first unemployment check so I was like, 'Oh, I'll use this to buy it, '" Rittenhouse said in a phone interview with the Washington Post that was published Thursday. "I would have died that night if I didn't".
He faces multiple charges, including intentional homicide, reckless endangerment and being a minor in possession of a firearm. The 17-year-old was eventually taken into custody where he was being held at the Kenosha County Jail.
The weapon was stored at Black's stepfather's house in Kenosha until Black and Rittenhouse each took rifles downtown on August 25, according to police records.
Fox 6 says this is Rittenhouse's first time speaking out since.
Kyle Rittenhouse, the Antioch teen charged with murder, has been released from a Wisconsin jail after posting a $2 million cash bond Friday afternoon. Rittenhouse told The Post. Huber said Rittenhouse thinks he's above the law and noted the effort to raise money on his behalf.
"When I saw pieces of video (of the shooting), that's self-defense and he needs to come home to his family", Wendy Rittenhouse said.
Rittenhouse, meanwhile, was extradited to Wisconsin late last month and is awaiting trial on charges that could put him in prison for life.
