Meanwhile in Wisconsin...



Blake's 3 sons were IN that car.
The incident almost immediately set off unrest in the city about 40 miles south of Milwaukee which continued early Monday morning.

[...]

By late Sunday, multiple vehicles were set ablaze and windows were smashed along city thoroughfares as crowds faced off with law enforcement. Officers in riot gear stood in lines and SWAT vehicles remained on the streets to move people away from city buildings despite the declaration of an overnight curfew.

[...]

By midnight, the crowd had dwindled to a few hundred people who stood in the square next to the courthouse watching city dump trucks go up in flames. A big boom sounded when one of the tires blew up, dispersing the crowd once again.

Police deployed tear gas early Monday in an effort to disperse hundreds of people.

In a statement early Monday, Wisconsin DOJ said the officers involved in the shooting had been placed on administrative leave. The state's Division of Criminal Investigation is heading up an investigation into the shooting and will seek to "provide a report of the incident to the prosecutor within 30 days," according to the statement.

I should hope they could get a report written up "within 30 days."
