A black Smith & Wesson M&P 15 rifle with a serial number of TF20210 was destroyed last month by the Wisconsin State Crime Lab. This was the rifle that Kyle Rittenhouse used to defend himself on August 25, 2020 during the Kenosha, WI riots Rittenhouse killed two and injured a third white man that evening or lawlessness brought by BLM and Antifa protestors.
Kenosha Police Lt. Joe Nosalik and Captain Brent Sagedal documented the destruction on body-cam and took photos. The destruction was a result of an agreement between prosecutors, Dominick Black, and Rittenhouse’s attorney. The rifle was destroyed the morning of February 25, 2022.
