Rooftop sleeper charged in Wisc.

MADISON, Wis. — Police say a Minnesota man who broke into the Wisconsin Capitol through a first-floor window and was found unconscious on the roof is now facing criminal charges.

The Wisconsin Department of Administration says 21-year-old Andrew Bishop smashed a window Sunday to get into the Capitol.

Police found Bishop passed out on the fourth-floor rooftop just below the dome’s observation deck.


Bishop is charged in Dane County with felony criminal damage and entry into a locked building, a misdemeanor.

He was in jail on a $1,000 bond Wednesday and doesn’t yet have an attorney. He’s due in court next week.
