Wisconsin prosecutors seek arrest, higher bond for accused Kenosha shooter

A Wisconsin judge on Wednesday pushed back the murder trial of Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse to November.

The ruling came after prosecutors and defense lawyers asked Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder for more time to prepare their cases — which includes a public opinion poll being conducted by Rittenhouse’s attorneys, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported.

Rittenhouse, 18, faces murder and attempted murder charges for shooting three protesters in the Wisconsin city on Aug. 25.

The teen was with armed militia members who were guarding local businesses amid unrest over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.

Rittenhouse is accused of killing Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and wounding protester Gaige Grosskreutz — with the incident captured on a viral video.

The teenager has been free on $2 million bail donated by supporters since last November.
