Washington, Aug 30 (TIWN) US President Donald Trump will visit Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday following days of unrest in the city in response to the August 23 police shooting of African-American man, Jacob Blake, it was reported.

Addressing the media on Saturday, a White House spokesperson said that Trump “will meet with law enforcement and survey damage from recent riots”, The Hill news website reported.
