The Wisconsin National Guard mobilized more than 2,400 citizen-soldiers and airmen to serve as poll workers during Tuesday's presidential primary, held amid the coronavirus outbreak. While many other states have delayed their primaries, Wisconsin proceeded despite more than 2,500 confirmed cases of the virus in the state and 92 deaths. The Guard personnel were dressed in civilian attire and served at polls in 71 of Wisconsin’s 72 counties in an effort to support the state's election committee and clerks "due to a critical shortage of poll workers resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic," Capt. Joe Trovato said.

A man wearing a medical face mask was caught on camera sucker-punching an #NYPD officer in the Bronx Tuesday night as the cop’s partner was subduing a robbery suspect. Nelson Jimenez, 31, launched his attack in front of a crowd of bystanders who had gathered on a sidewalk near 183rd Street and Davidson Avenue in University Heights to watch the arrest of 27-year-old robbery suspect Yoemdy Castro, law enforcement sources said. One cop in the video can be seen holding Castro to the ground, while another stands nearby. During the episode, Jimenez walks behind the standing officer, then socks him in the head, knocking off his winter cap, the video allegedly shows.

A California couple was surprised to find out last weekend they had contracted coronavirus after a month-long cruise to Antarctica, Fox News reported. “We were in the safest place in the world literally,” Bill Portanova told the Sacramento Bee Tuesday. Shauna Portanova tested positive for the virus after returning to Sacramento and her husband Bill was told to presume he had the virus as well in an effort to conserve test kits. The couple left for the Antarctic cruise on Hurtigruten Cruise’s MS Roald Amundsen with a “few hundred” other passengers in February, but the Chilean government refused to allow the ship to return in March even though no passengers were sick at the time, SFGATE reported.
