(Reuters) - California Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law on Monday a bill that requires schools to limit or ban the use of smartphones, amid a growing consensus that excess usage can increase the risk of mental illness and impair learning.
WEST PALM BEACH: The gunman suspected of planning to kill Donald Trump on his golf course wrote a chilling letter months ago about a failed"assassination attempt" on the former US president, according to court papers filed Monday as he was remanded in custody.
A Secret Service agent had fired on him after spotting a rifle poking out of the tree line several holes ahead of Trump, the government alleges in a preliminary filing to the court. "This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I am so sorry I failed you," said the letter, the front page of which was pictured in an image included with the filing.
The gunman in the earlier case was killed at the scene and it is not thought to be connected with the new alleged plot. Detectives believe Routh may have been lying in wait for Trump for nearly 12 hours at the Florida course. He was arrested after police spotted his car driving on a nearby highway.
