Mapping the Kenosha Wisconsin Riot Damage

By the Solari Team

Preface: What was different from the Minneapolis Riots Report?

Sources:

Unlike our report on Mapping Minneapolis Riot Damage, there were no concise lists of individual property damage. The main source for this report was Live UA Map Timeline Aug 24 – Sept 04 2020. Stories listed were from Twitter and elsewhere, most of which referred to multiple and sometimes duplicate instances of the same event. There were only a handful of individual property damage reports. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the data we used are accurate or complete.

If you have detailed Kenosha riot damage information, we ask that subscribers post at Subscriber Input at Solari.com. If you are not a subscriber, please send your riot damage info to customerservice@solari.com. As always, we invite your input.

Law Enforcement Response:

The police and National Guard made their presence known. Barricades were erected, arrests were made, and there were serious efforts made to restore order (something that was totally lacking in Minneapolis). However, more disturbing events occurred:

Occupied family residences were broken into.
Partisan gun fights occurred and casualties were produced.
Partisan street fights occurred and casualties were produced.
In spite of the combined efforts of Kenosha PD and a WI Army National Guard Brigade (~2000 troops), millions of dollars in property damages were incurred.

Damage Statistics:

See “Emergency Services Stats Kenosha August 23rd-Sep 3rd” (section below the maps).

What was the same?

Note that most of the destruction appears to have been caused within an “Opportunity Zone.” Verification underway.
The below maps were made with an Apple app called “Ahoy Map Maker.”
