WILKINSBURG, Pa. (AP) — Authorities in Allegheny County are seeking a suspect in the fatal shooting of a man who was gunned down while walking with a 5-year-old relative. Police say the 23-year-old pulled the boy out of the way of the gunfire Monday afternoon. Police say the pair were walking on Winton Street in Wilkinsburg when a male exited a four-door sedan and opened fire, shooting the victim multiple times. The victim was taken to a hospital, where he died. Two good Samaritans assisted the child, who sustained an injury when the victim yanked him out of the line of fire. No names have been released.

Democrats lay big caucus egg: No results from Iowa election
Democrats lay big caucus egg: No results from Iowa election
By STEVE PEOPLES, THOMAS BEAUMONT and ALEXANDRA JAFFE Associated Press
Democratic Party officials in Iowa are working furiously to deliver the delayed results of their first-in-the-nation caucus. Frustrated presidential candidates are claiming momentum and plowing ahead in their White House quests. Technology problems and reporting “inconsistencies” kept party officials from releasing results from Monday’s caucus, the much-hyped kickoff to the 2020 primary. It was an embarrassing twist after months of promoting the contest as a chance for Democrats to find some clarity in a jumbled field with no clear front-runner. Instead, caucus day ended with no winner, no official results and many fresh questions about whether Iowa can retain its coveted “first” status. State party officials say final results will be released Tuesday.

Rush Limbaugh says he’s been diagnosed with lung cancer
Rush Limbaugh says he’s been diagnosed with lung cancer
By LYNN ELBER AP Television Writer
Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh says he’s been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. Addressing listeners on his program Monday, Limbaugh said will take some days off for further medical tests and to determine treatment. Limbaugh called himself the “mayor of Realville” in announcing his illness. He’d been experiencing shortness of breath that he initially thought might be heart-related but turned out to be cancer. Limbaugh’s national prominence began in 1988, when his first national radio show launched. Within a few years he was considered a Republican kingmaker, a status that has remained. He now broadcasts primarily from West Palm Beach, Florida.
