Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old who shot two rioters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, after they attacked him, will be extradited to the Badger State to stand trial on murder charges.

Rittenhouse is currently sitting in an Illinois jail, where his attorneys request for a release. Lake County Circuit Court Judge Paul Novak denied the request and told Rittenhouse he must make his self-defense claims in a Wisconsin court, the New York Post reported.
