Kenosha’s mayor is not saying if charges will be brought against the officer who shot Jacob Blake back in August, or even when the decision will be made. But Mayor John Antaramian is asking for peace when that decision does come.
The mayor wrote an op-ed in the Kenosha News recently. He said Kenosha will not, and can not, tolerate the kind of violence the city saw after Blake’s shooting. He said people can disagree with whatever decision is made in the case, but he doesn’t want to see more riots and fires.
Prosecutors have not yet decided if the officer who shot Blake will be charged in the case.
