Anthony Huber was shot and killed in Kenosha during an altercation with a gunman Tuesday.

While Huber is being portrayed by his associates as a hero, others are calling out the circumstances of the shooting and Huber’s criminal background.

Records show Huber was a repeat arrestee for domestic violence.

In one instance he was arrested on charges of related to the alleged strangulation and suffocation, use of a dangerous weapon, false imprisonment, battery and disorderly conduct related to the domestic assault.

In another domestic abuse arrest Huber was brought up on charges of battery and disorderly conduct and designated a repeat abuser.  

Huber appeared purportedly chased shooter Kyle Rittenhouse down from behind bludgeoning him with a skateboard before Rittenhouse fell to the ground where the shooting occurred.

Civil rights attorney Robert Barnes said in his view of the incident Rittenhouse appeared to be protecting himself.

“By all evidence I see, Rittenhouse's actions were entirely consistent within his rights of self defense under Wisconsin law,” Barnes told the Kenosha Reporter.  

The goal of $25,000 for Huber’s GoFund Me account was quickly exceeded and as of the time of publication was nearing $100,000.
