Kyle Rittenhouse was performing at the University of Memphis on Wednesday night when a raucous crowd of Black Lives Matter protesters jeered him and suddenly fled the stage.
The 21-year-old Kenosha gunman stormed off the podium about 30 minutes after his scheduled appearance after protesters began booing loudly, footage showed.
Ahead of Mr. Rittenhouse’s speech, several hundred people gathered outside the university, brandishing signs that read, “Put Rittenhouse behind bars, not on a podium” and “No murderers on my campus.”
