It looks like there is a whole article he did but, since I don't have a NYT subscription and try not to post paywalled links, maybe someone else can sort out what he has to say beyond the Tweets.
If his analysis is correct then the initial shooting could have been prompted by one of the other protesters shooting into the air. That would certainly bolster a self-defense claim. It still doesn't explain why Rittenhouse was down the street instead of in the parking lot, defending the business, but it does give him a valid reason to turn and shoot at his pursuer.

I guess I will post the link to the NYT piece - Tracking Kyle Rittenhouse in the Fatal Kenosha Shootings - The New York Times
Who knew that you could see NYT articles if you use Chrome instead of Firefox? Sure wish someone had told me that 5 damned years ago!
