REPORT: Man Who Fired Behind Kyle Rittenhouse Has been Charged

Cassandra Fairbanks of Gateway Pundit has reported an exclusive that marks a huge break in the case for Kyle Rittenhouse. Rittenhouse had been previously arrested after shooting at three people and killing two in the Kenosha, WI riots.

He has claimed self-defense, and many have come to his support, including President Trump. Many others including most leftists have accused him of cold-blooded murder. Lin Wood, who represented Nick Sandmann has been helping Rittenhouse.

It was reported earlier that he will not face charges over the gun or shooting in his home state of Illinois, but he is not out of the woods in Kenosha, WI just yet.

Fairbanks reported based on a document they procured that “Joshua Ziminski, 35, has been charged with disorderly conduct and use of a dangerous weapon for firing his weapon during the incident on August 25.” See tweet below:

Below shows the document reported by Gateway Pundit where Joshua J Ziminski has been charged.

According to the charging document, obtained by The Gateway Pundit, while investigating the shooting by Rittenhouse, Kenosha detectives obtained videos in which Ziminski “was holding a black handgun, which he was holding in his left hand, pointing downward. Detective Howard reports that in reviewing multiple other videos, he was able to see the defendant and Kelly Ziminski, in and around multiple other people on the streets, and the defendant was seen holding the handgun down at his side in said videos.”

This will likely help Rittenhouse’s self-defense case. See the document below:

We reported back on the 28th:

Court Documents filed on Thursday seem to suggest that Kyle Rittenhouse acted in self defense when firing his weapon. The complaint was filed Thursday by Assistant District Attorney Carli McNeill. The full complaint can be seen here.

Attorney Lin Wood commented “From my standpoint, it’s important that the message be clear to other Americans who are attacked that there will be legal resources available in the event false charges are brought against them, Americans should never be deterred from exercising their right of self-defense”
