Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old Black man, is in "serious" condition after being shot seven times by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

The shooting took place on Sunday afternoon as police responded to what was described as a "domestic incident." Blake was reportedly breaking up a verbal altercation between two women just after 5 PM.

A video is being shared across social media, horrifically showing the shooting as it happened. Jacob Blake is seen walking away from police as they followed him with a gun pointed to his back. Screaming witnesses can be heard as over sixty people are said to have gathered the block. When Blake opened his car door and got in, a police officer shot him seven times in the back. Blake was unarmed.

He was transported to a nearby hospital and is still being treated. As of this morning, his condition was described as "serious."

S*** is f***ed up. Just the other week some cops in my city hit a kid on a bike with their car and broke his hip because he allegedly had a gun.

You know how old he was?

Nah. He looked like a teenager probably in the 15-18 range

Crazy thing is homie was just breaking up a fight.

aw s*** here we go again.

Hopefully, he’ll survive.
This is genuinely devastating, and, as far as I’m concerned, the police will never change, unfortunately; thenceforth, defund it at the very least!
