And the weapon charge is gone.

Judge dismisses weapons charge in Kyle Rittenhouse homicide trial

A Wisconsin judge on Monday dismissed a weapons charge against Kyle Rittenhouse, the teen who fatally shot two people and wounded a third during a protest in Kenosha last year.

Moments before closing arguments were set to start, Judge Bruce Schroeder dismissed one count of illegal possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18.

The misdemeanor, punishable by up to nine months in jail, was considered one of the stronger counts against Rittenhouse. No one disputes he was 17 last year when he walked the streets of Kenosha armed with an AR-15-style weapon.

But the judge cited an exception within the law, dealing with age of the defendant, length of the barrel and hunting, for dismissing that count.
