An Emmet County man upset with a recent court ruling is accused of bringing a bat to the courthouse to hurt someone.

Deputies arrested 19-year-old Mitchell Gane this morning outside the courthouse in Petoskey.

Investigators say Gane brought a bat to the courthouse and tried to use it on his former step-father.

Gane is charged with assault with intent to murder and could spend life in prison.

Gane is currently out on a $5,000 bond.
