“There were pom-poms and shoes and spilled hot chocolate everywhere,” one person told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal. “I had to go from one crumpled body to the other to find my daughter. My wife and two daughters were almost hit. Please pray for everybody. Please pray. My family is safe but many are not. I held one little girl’s head in my hand, she was seizing and she was bleeding out of her ears. I held her mother as she collapsed. Please pray.
CNN reports — and Chief Thompson confirmed on Monday — that officials have found no evidence to indicate the incident was an act of domestic terrorism. Authorities also don’t believe the incident had any relation to the controversial Kyle Rittenhouse verdict handed down in nearby Kenosha last week.
