9:19Now PlayingTwo Wisconsin police officers were on leave Monday as state authorities investigate why a Black man was shot multiple times in the back as he entered the driver's side door of an SUV, officials said.
The man's three children -- 3, 5 and 8 -- were in the car, a family attorney said.
Identified by the governor as Jacob Blake, the man is in serious condition and fighting for his life. Attorney Ben Crump, who represents the Blake family, posted a video of the Sunday evening shooting in Kenosha.
The footage spread across social media, sparking protests and leading county officials to institute a curfew that remained in place until Monday morning. Another will be instituted from 8 p.m. Monday until 7 a.m. Tuesday morning, according to the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department.
State Attorney General Josh Kaul said his office will work closely with the Kenosha County district attorney's office during the investigation.
"As with all investigations we conduct, we will unwaveringly pursue justice in this case," Kaul said in a statement.
