Travis Barker Rushed To The Hospital: What We Know Musician Travis Barker, best known as the drummer in Blink-182, was reportedly taken to the hospital for an unknown medical issue Tuesday. That same day, Barker tweeted "God save me."
On the eighth day of the trial, Rittenhouse's defense team called Jacob Marshall, Grosskreutz's former roommate, to the stand.
Grosskreutz, who was shot in the bicep by Rittenhouse's AR-15, had lived with Marshall for three months before the August 25, 2020 shooting.
Defense Attorney Corey Chirafisi questioned Marshall about a Facebook post he made after visiting his roommate in the hospital.
In the post, Marshall alleged that Grosskreutz's "only regret was not killing the kid," in reference to Rittenhouse.
During the prosecution's case, Grosskretuz testified that he never made such a statement.
The defense had called Marshall in hopes that his testimony would counter Grosskretuz's account, but Marshall corroborated Grosskretuz's testimony instead.
"The words have never came out of his mouth," Marshall said in court. "100 percent made it all up."
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
