(CNN Business) Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Wednesday suggested it was not surprising that a teenager arrested in connection to a shooting allegedly took up arms and tried to "maintain order" during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin. "How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would?" During his Wednesday show, Carlson argued that "the authorities in charge of the city abandoned it" and "refused to enforce the law." Neither the Kenosha Police Department nor the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department could be reached for comment early Thursday morning. Kenosha Mayor John Antaramian and Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers could not be reached for comment early Thursday morning.
