Kyle Rittenhouse shouted "Friendly! Friendly! Friendly!" as he was being chased by a man he eventually shot to death during street protests against racial injustice, a police detective testified - in a confrontation the defense portrayed as "the classic ambush."
Video took center stage Wednesday in the Illinois man's trial in the shootings of three men - two fatally - after Rittenhouse traveled to Kenosha in August 2020 with a medical kit and a rifle in what he says was an effort to safeguard property from damaging riots.
Jurors peered at infrared video made by an FBI surveillance plane from almost 9,000 feet above the spot where Rittenhouse shot 36-year-old Joseph Rosenbaum. With colored circles superimposed on the video identifying the movements of the two men far below, Kenosha Police Detective Martin Howard agreed with defense attorney Mark Richards that Rittenhouse had repeatedly shouted "Friendly!" as he was being chased - and that Rosenbaum appeared to be gaining ground on Rittenhouse.
