Specifically this bit right here:

Richie would later tell me that he saw what prompted the first shooting. A verbal fight escalated as the victim tried grabbing the alleged shooter’s rifle – twice. The second time, Richie told me, the victim came very close to getting his hand on the man’s gun, trying to grab it away from him. He may have actually made contact, but it’s unclear amid the mayhem. That’s when the shooter fired.

If Joseph Rosenbaum, the bald 'shoot me nigga' pedo in the red shirt, hadn't escalated a verbal argument by lunging for Rittenhouse's gun and then chasing him when he tried to leave, he and Anthony Huber would still be alive today, to the misfortune of any children and girlfriends around them respectively. Everything that followed - Rosenbaum's own death, then the mob pursuing Rittenhouse until he killed Huber and wounded Gaige Grosskreutz - can now be laid at the feet of his decision to try grabbing for Rittenhouse's gun.

Edit: I've been enlightened to the existence of the charging papers, which include a fuller account from the witness in this article (Richie McGinniss) - starts at page 3. Still fully exonerating, turns out that before the chase Rosenbaum confronted Rittenhouse for no readily apparent reason while the latter was just walking on a sidewalk and wouldn't back off, even after Rittenhouse tried to sidestep out of the way.
