WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General William Barr says a version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report with fewer redactions will be made available to a small group of lawmakers. In a letter to Congress on Thursday, Barr says the second version of the report would be given to the “Gang of Eight,” the top-ranking House and Senate lawmakers from both parties who can view sensitive classified information. Democrats want the full report released.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Even before the world got a glimpse at the redacted version of the special counsel’s report, President Donald Trump was trying once more to frame the moment as a political victory. The report does include an account of how the president attempted to seize control of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election and force out Robert Mueller. But Trump’s taking a public victory lap, saying he’s having “a good day.”

PARIS (AP) — A French judicial police official said investigators think an electrical short-circuit most likely caused Notre Dame Cathedral fire. The official, who spoke anonymously about the ongoing investigation, said investigators still don’t have the green light to work in the cathedral and search in the rubble for safety reasons.

MCKEES ROCK, Pa. (AP) — Authorities say a man sleeping in a dumpster was tossed into the back of a garbage truck as the trash was being emptied, causing him to lose his prosthetic leg.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) – The state House is passing a bill allowing the PA Fish and Boat Commission to set its own license fees. The measure would allow the commission to raise fees to keep up with costs, while lawmakers would retain the ability to reject the increases. The cost of a fishing license hasn’t gone up since 2005. The state Senate is now considering the measure.

The Pennsylvania House of Representatives is approving a bill saying people can’t be held liable for damage to a car if they force themselves in to save a child. The measure does require people use no more force than necessary and believe the child is in imminent danger and cannot exit the vehicle on their own. The good Samaritan must still make a reasonable effort to find the driver and call police.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The Pennsylvania House of Representatives is moving to toughen penalties for people who do not report suspicions about repeated child sexual abuse and make it explicit that nondisclosure terms in contracts cannot prevent people from talking to police in child molestation investigations. Both proposals are based on recommendations in a landmark grand jury report last year into the sexual abuse of children by about 300 Roman Catholic clergy in the state. The House approved the proposals Wednesday.
