KENOSHA POLICE SCANNER THREAD:

Getting oriented, I'll call out if I hear anything big

Fire alarm at the museum, rioters are seen on-site and police are responding.

Officers on scene at the "Dinosaur Museum" asking for backup, seeing 15+ rioters gathering.

People calling for help after being shot with rubber bullets. (lol)

(These people best not burn down no dino bone exhibits. They already went extinct. Let them RIP.)

"Stay in the bearcat, don't step out unless you have to."

"Group of half-dozen subjects approaching Dino Museum, one walking in with a container."
"We're here, we need help, we're here!"

"We don't have enough, we have to get out of here"
#KenoshaRiots

Others are calling to hold location. Seems to be a little confusion on the line. Talking about pushing into the building to put out any possible fires. Rioters are fleeing southbound.

"We need that strike team on the south side of the museum." Seems like they want to clear it and move on, they're surrounding the building and it sounds like they have a hold on things for now.

Smells like gas around the museum, doesn't look like they got fully into the building before fleeing.

Civ guarding a neighborhood with a shotgun. ('Mercia.)

Armed civs, guarding rioters. weird...

"Large group coming-... Don't know if they're rioters or protestors or our people."

On Sheridan Rd., Big group, individuals appearing to have long guns at the front.

"We're counting 11 firearms, mostly long guns, turned around and heading south on Sheridan"

(@livesmattershow is onsite, check out his vids for more context)

Somebody tried to burn the Old Kenosha News Building, it's been put out.

(Side note, normally I'm pretty good at this but I can't understand the cops in riot gear. Their voices are so muffled XD)

Red Saturn conspicuously parked near the fire station. Sound like they're trying to figure out who it is.

"Gonna need the [FBI?] and bearcat", I believe this is near the courthouse/city hall based on the livestreams. They're shuffling those cars and NG members around like chess pieces.

***"About 20 people in front of the courthouse in camo with assault rifles."

Rioters throwing bricks off the rooves of buildings, dumpsters being rolled in front of trucks in an attempt to block the police line from advancing.

There is a man in a Spiderman suit sprinting around. Keepin' it classing Wisco.

(I'm seeing a lot of armed rioters in the livestreams. More than usual. Seems quiet. There are people on rooftops and in burned-out buildings.)

5 armed individuals, seem to be business owners/residents and the police say they are cooperative.

***Shots fired***

People reported fleeing, police responding, say they didn't hear the shots, no details yet. (Sounds like they're near the car lot and furniture store destroyed last night)

May have been riot control/less-lethal fire. Doesn't sound like police found evidence of any injuries

The main crowd is on the move again, not sure where they're headed.

(Side note: gas is 2.09 in Kenosha? Damn. Milwaukee gas is theft.)

Rioters blocking the road with tipped-over port-a-potties. I hope these fools get cholera. 🤦‍♀️

5 shots fired west of the courthouse****

Uh oh... big fire. Also no news on shots fired by the courthouse. Police are using alternative channels so remember to follow livestreams and reporters on the scene if you can.

A group of motorcycles is driving around setting fires, homes are being evacuated.

Shit guys. bad news.

...They got the Pizza Hut.

These kids are out of their depth:

SHOTS FIRED. MANY. People are hit

One Black male, hit in the chest, civs in a van taking him to a hospital

Another man down in the street, unsure if the same shooting.

They have the shooter, he set down his gun. Not sure of circumstances.

Gunfire still going on from multiple directions, sounds like a warzone.

Powderkeg has been set off.

At least three civs shot, no police, at least one gunmen still at large

Indi press got at least two of the shootings on video.

Graphic video floating around of one of the shootings. Be careful with vids you're clicking on tonight. Likely to get worse.

(Side note, not sure where these "journalists" come from, but it clearly isn't an active warzone. They don't drop when they hear gunfire. They perk up like fucking meerkats and go, "oH sHIt, tHeY ShOoTIn!!")

Possible 4th shooting victim. Police still looking for one of the shooters. It sounds like it was a man with a rifle that fired into a crowd.

Press have gotten the shooting vids to a police officer and images of the shooters. Hopefully this won't stay a mystery.

A shooting suspect that ran is said to have been dressed like a medic (clearly not a very good one)

"Defund the police! ACAB!!!"
"ExceptWhenWeNeedThemBecauseWeFuckedUpOkayThanksssss"

More shots on CJTV's livestream

Think it was less-lethal rounds/flashes, police are moving into his area using CS gas. (colorless, odorless, works like teargas.) It's State Patrol clearing the crime scenes.

Sounds like two suspects are in custody in connection to the shooting, I didn't hear anything on the one that ran toward the tracks.

More shots fired to the south and west of the courthouse.

Not sure how much longer I can put up with this. Gonna call it a night soon, but I doubt Kenosha is.

I won't lie to you guys, I just prayed for the first time in the better part of six years. God help us.

END THREAD: Fuck this. No one wins.
