'I walked away with my life that night': Wounded Kenosha medic Gaige Grosskreutz tells his story
The Milwaukee Journal ^ | September 11, 2020 | Gina Barton

Grosskreutz was among three people shot on the third night of protests after Kenosha police shot a Black man, Jacob Blake, seven times in the back.

The two other victims of the Aug. 25 triple shooting, Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, did not survive.

The shooter, Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, of Antioch, Ill, considered himself a citizen soldier. That evening, armed with an AR-15, he told several people he had traveled to Kenosha to help protect life and property. Rittenhouse has been charged with five felonies including first-degree intentional homicide. His lead attorney, John M. Pierce of the law firm Pierce Bainbridge, plans to argue self-defense.

Because of the pending criminal charges against Rittenhouse, Grosskreutz's attorney, Kimberly Motley, has advised him not to discuss what happened the moments immediately before he was shot. On videos, Rittenhouse can be seen falling as he is chased down Sheridan Drive. Grosskreutz approaches, comes to a stop after Rittenhouse shoots Huber, then takes a few more steps before being shot in the arm at close range.

Grosskreutz sees the demonstrations against police brutality as a first step toward ending inequality and bringing about the ideal of justice for all.

"I want to be there and help amplify my brothers' and sisters' voices," he told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Thursday.

Dob:1969. Birth year 1993? That pic has to be when he was 28. He doesnt look 43 in that pic. My guess is that he has a long history of lots of trouble with everyone he meets. We need to defund the media.

I’ll join the chorus with anyone else of the opinion that it’d have been much better for civilization in general if Rittenhouse had blown the piece of shit away along with the other two.

Too bad for Gross Dude its all on video at multiple angles.

This would have ended quickly with Kyle vindicated but the Rats will drag their feet for the political value and by the time Kyle walks it will be all but forgotten and nary a peep of his innocence on the Noos.

Cute. Might not be smart enough to be worth saving.

Am I correct in suspecting that this broad is part white?
