These two men traveled to Kenosha with a rifle, a shotgun, two handguns, a silencer, ammo, body armor and a drone.
The governor declared a state of emergency, and the National Guard was sent to Kenosha where several businesses were also damaged.
According to a criminal complaint filed against Karmo and Smith, the two men traveled from their home in southwest Missouri to Wisconsin earlier this week, stopping in Iowa along the way.The complaint says someone the men interacted with in Iowa sent a tip to law enforcement that Karmo and Smith were headed to Kenosha with intentions to loot and there was also mention of"picking people off," although neither suspect had claimed they would personally do that.
The tipster was reportedly concerned about Karmo's proclivity for guns and increased interest in conspiracy theories. The complaint says the FBI used cellphone data to track Karmo and Smith and arrest them Tuesday outside of a hotel in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, which is located near Kenosha. It was in that hotel room and the suspects' vehicle that authorities say they found the guns and a small bag of marijuana.
