KENOSHA, Wis. Kyle Rittenhouse, the 18-year old Antioch teen accused of killing two people in the protests that followed the shooting of Jacob Blake In Kenosha, is under new restrictions tonight.
Kenosha County Prosecutors requested changes to the conditions of Rittenhouse s bond after they said he was seen drinking beer in a bar with his mother.
Prosecutors submitted several photos to the judge, including pictures in which Rittenhouse is flashing the okay sign, which has been adopted by many white supremacist groups.
Under the new bond conditions, Rittenhouse cannot drink alcohol, go to bars or associate with white supremacist groups.
They also asked the court to order him not to associate with white supremacists. //end headline wrapper ?>Get a daily rundown of the top stories on Urban Milwaukee
