Prosecutors deliver closing arguments in Rittenhouse trial

Prosecutors condemned Kyle Rittenhouse for “bringing a gun to a fistfight” during closing arguments on the 10th day of the trial.

Monday’s hearing opened with Judge Bruce Schroeder granting a defence motion to dismiss one misdemeanour count against Mr Rittenhouse for possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18.

Mr Rittenhouse has been charged with homicide in the deaths of two men he shot during a night of protests and riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year.

He also shot a third man who was wounded but survived.
