'We could have some trouble brewing': How understaffed police forces across America are bracing for Rittenhouse acquittal: Chicago cancels weekend days off as Portland, LAPD and Washington DC all monitor trial
2021-11-12
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Chicago PD has canceled officers' requested days off this weekend to 'enhance public safety'

  • The LAPD says it will have 'enough' officers on duty to deal with any potential uprising but is monitoring the trial

  • Portland PD and Washington Metro PD are also watching the verdict

  • Other forces are refusing to confirm what they are doing - if anything - to prepare

  • Rittenhouse, a white teenager, shot and killed two BLM protesters last year in Kenosha, Wisconsin at the height of civil unrest that swept the country

  • There are also fears a verdict could be returned at the same time as one is reached in the case of Ahmaud Arbery's killers

  • The black jogger was shot dead in Georgia by three white men in February 2020
