A crowd gathered Saturday in downtown Minneapolis in response to the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.

A jury acquitted Rittenhouse Friday on all charges after the teen shot and killed two people involved in protests over a police-involved shooting.

Trahern Crews, a lead organizer with Black Lives Matter Minnesota, suspected Rittenhouse might be acquitted once the misdemeanor gun possession charge was thrown out.
