Teenager Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted Friday of all charges for shooting and killing two men, and wounding another, during protests against police brutality last year in Kenosha, Wis.
Rittenhouse faced charges including intentional homicide and reckless endangerment. He was 17 when he traveled to the protests from his Illinois home and brought an AR-15 rifle with him.
