At least three buildings were on fire tonight in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as protests continue over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
We did not see one arrest tonight in Kenosha on the live stream. Multiple buildings were set on fire, and another car dealership went up in flames.

The buildings include a furniture supply store, an automotive repair business, and a Department of Corrections field office. A dump truck was also set on fire.
The Kenosha Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for information on the cause of the fires.
The protesters defied an 8 p.m. curfew, coming out for the second night since the Sunday shooting.
