A man twice appeared to threaten Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers with firearms.

The shirtless man, whose name is not publicly known, went into the Badger State’s capitol in Madison on Oct. 5, first with a handgun, wanting to see the governor. He was taken into custody but, upon posting bail, returned that evening with a rifle outside the capitol as he again wanted to see Mr. Evers. He was again apprehended and hospitalized.
