SALEM, Ore. (AP) — Journalists are defending a small Oregon newspaper after a county attorney asked the sheriff to investigate whether a reporter broke the law by trying to get comments from a government official on a weekend. Staffers at the Malheur Enterprise, a weekly newspaper in the remote town of Vale, said they were just doing their job. Malheur County Sheriff Brian Wolfe said Wednesday an inquiry determined no laws had been broken.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Can a governor be forced to live in the state capital? Just where West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice sleeps is being explored in a courtroom. The billionaire gets criticized by Republicans and Democrats alike for being absent from the statehouse as his family manages more than 100 private business interests. The state constitution says the governor “shall reside at the seat of government.” Justice’s lawyers are challenging the definition of the word “reside.”

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — President Donald Trump does not appreciate Denmark’s rejection of his idea to buy Greenland. The American leader told reporters that “all they had to say was, ‘No, we’d rather not do that.'” Instead, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the idea “an absurd discussion” and said she was “disappointed and surprised” that Trump canceled his Sept. 2-3 visit to Denmark in a tweet. Trump said her comments were “nasty,” adding “You don’t talk to the United States like that.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration is moving to end a long-standing federal court agreement that limits how long immigrant children can be kept in detention. The move is almost certain to spark a new court fight over the government’s ability to hold families until their cases are decided. Because of those restrictions, parents and children caught trying to come into the country have been released into the U.S. while their asylum requests wind their way through the courts.

ATLANTA (AP) — Police say four college students were wounded when a gunman opened fire into a crowd of 200 people outside a library near Clark Atlanta University. None of the injuries from the Tuesday night shooting were life-threatening. The block party was celebrating the end of orientation for new students. Investigators believe the victims were caught in the crossfire after an argument broke out. There was a heavy security presence on campus Wednesday morning, the first day of classes.

FALLSINGTON, Pa. (AP) — Officials at a Pennsylvania school district say a single-digit tax rate typo created a nearly $900,000 deficit. A school board resolution from the Pennsbury School District in Falls Township near Levittown incorrectly set the millage rate for the upcoming school year. The district’s chief financial officer says the error wasn’t caught before tax bills were sent out. Higher than assessed property values and a higher-than-normal tax collection rate in the district has made up most of the deficit.

NEW OXFORD, Pa. (AP) — Police in Pennsylvania say a recently fired employee at a poultry processing facility returned to the business, shot and killed his former boss and then himself. Officers with the Eastern Adams Regional Police Department were dispatched to Plainville Farms distribution facility in New Oxford at around 5:45 a.m. on Wednesday. The York Daily Record reports the man waited in the parking lot for his boss to arrive and shot him once when he exited the car. He then turned the gun on himself.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Former Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross says his abrupt resignation was completely voluntary. Speaking outside police headquarters Wednesday, Ross says his love for the city compelled him to make a decision that was bigger than him. Ross resigned Tuesday, a day after two female officers say their complaints of being physically and verbally harassed by supervisors and colleagues were ignored by department brass. Ross says it was for the best that he step down.
