Summary

-- Calm fell on Kenosha’s streets on Thursday following a night of peaceful protests and no widespread unrest for the first time since the weekend police shooting of Jacob Blake.Marchers were solemn during Wednesday night’s protests in the southeastern Wisconsin city between Milwaukee and Chicago following the chaos of the previous night, when two demonstrators were fatally shot and a third was wounded.“Last night was very peaceful,” said Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth during a Thursday news conference during which he and other city leaders refused to answer questions. Three Major League Baseball games were delayed because players refused to take the field and several NFL teams canceled their Thursday practices.Also Thursday, Wisconsin Lutheran College located about 40 miles from Kenosha said it canceled a planned Saturday commencement speech by Vice President Mike Pence, citing the unrest.Also Thursday, four groups representing Wisconsin sheriffs and police departments called on Democratic Gov. Tony Evers to stop making “premature, judgmental, (and) inflammatory” comments about Blake’s shooting that they say “only add to the anger and divisiveness of an already dangerous situation.”Evers has said he stands with everyone demanding justice, equity and accountability and against the excessive use of force against Black people.The governor has authorized the deployment of 500 members of the National Guard to Kenosha, doubling the number of troops in the city of 100,000.
