Yea, that is the worst article. Absolutely zero detail. For all we know he was a felon getting ready to rob the place and got spooked by the guards. Sad that Denny's has guards... Hope they get some more details and release them so we can make some sense of what happened.

Unless he was carrying concealed, the proper charge would be against 941.23, but if he was openly carrying, they cannot be charged with DC (you can see that especially after the Madison 5 charges were thrown out).

Looks like some traffic violations. Nothing looks serious. I guess we will have to wait for further details.

Not to pick a nit but, he can be charged with DC while open carrying.... he cannot be charged with DC merely FOR open carrying. What I mean is, maybe he caused some sort of disturbance while he was OC'ing. I'm not trying to pick a fight... just seems like there's some additional circumstances missing.
