Protesters outside Helbachs Coffee in Middleton as the business continues its defiance of the Dane Co mask order.
The woman in orange supports what the Helbachs are doing but came over to listen. Very civil conversation.

Every customer we& #39;ve seeing going in and out of the business has not worn a mask.
While interviewing a protester, an owner came over and handed us this.
It& #39;s a copy of the @PublicHealthMDC announcement, highlighting the part that says people should assume those without masks have a valid reason for not wearing one.

NOW: @PublicHealthMDC just showed up for "education."
I asked how it went, they told me "not well."
The owner called Middleton Police to report harassment so now they& #39;re here too.

Police now talking outside with the health inspector
The Madison City Attorney is here too since she advises @PublicHealthMDC on its legal authority.
She says the next step after fines is suspending their food and drink license, which is now under consideration.

One more update to the bizarre day at Helbachs.
Middleton Police confirm the business called them to the shop. They found @PublicHealthMDC was there conducting legitimate business.
Police will also follow up to see if Helbachs is still flouting the mask order.
