Rittenhouse of Antioch, remains held in a juvenile detention centre in Lake County without bond due to pending criminal charges in Kenosha.

In court records filed late Thursday, Rittenhouse's attorneys argued that he was acting in self-defence and extraditing him to Wisconsin authorities would violate his constitutional rights.

Rittenhouse surrendered to police in his hometown of Antioch, Illinois, a day after prosecutors say he shot and killed two protesters and wounded a third on the streets of Kenosha on Aug. 25.

Wisconsin’s attorney general announced Monday that he has selected a former Madison police chief to serve as an independent consultant for prosecutors weighing whether to file charges against the officer who shot Jacob Blake, a Black man who was left paralyzed from the waist down.

The accused Kenosha gunman faces two first-degree murder charges.

Harris gathered with Jacob Blake’s father, two sisters and members of his legal team at a private airport in Milwaukee.

In a video posted Saturday night on Twitter by his family’s lawyer, Ben Crump, Blake said from his hospital bed that, “Twenty-four hours, every 24 hours it’s pain, nothing but pain. It hurts to breathe, it hurts to sleep, it hurts to move from side-to-side, it hurts to eat.”

Jacob Blake Sr. said the past two weeks have been ``surreal'' and ``like a dream'' and he's mentally worn out, adding he's been receiving death threats.

The shooting of Jacob Blake set off demonstrations across the U.S and prompted the NBA and NHL to postpone games in protest of racial injustice.

Kenosha police updated arrest figures Thursday, saying of the 252 people arrested, 132 did not live in Kenosha County.
