But in cross-examination, Rittenhouse said that he knew the man, Joseph Rosenbaum , was unarmed when he ran at the teenager. Judge Schroeder dismissed a curfew violation charge Tuesday, saying prosecutors had failed to present evidence to support it. Rittenhouse testified that he heard another man, Joshua Ziminski , tell Rosenbaum to "get him and kill him." "I remember his hand on the barrel of my gun," Rittenhouse testified. "I thought that would be the best way to avoid conflict," Rittenhouse testified.
