SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 12 (UPI) — Tens of thousands of California residents remain without power, hundreds of flights are grounded and at least two people are dead as severe storms continue to pound the western United States.

High winds in Oregon caused an 8- to 10-inch tree branch to fall onto Phillip Crosby, a 40-year-old homeless man camping along the Pacific Coast Trail in Jackson County. Authorities say Crosby complained the impact was prohibiting his ability to breathe and died as rescuers were attempting assist him.   Continue reading “Pineapple Express: 2 dead along northern West Coast, storm now pounding LA”

My Fox DC – by Emily Miller

WASHINGTON – When I was last at the D.C. police headquarters, they explained to me that I can’t apply for a gun carry permit just because I need to defend myself in a city with high crime. I had to prove a “special” danger, according to the new law. So that’s what I set out to do.

All Americans –- not just Washingtonians — can apply for a D.C. permit to carry a concealed handgun. But you have to prove you have specific threats against you or previous attacks. So far, the police have only gotten 47 permit applications. Police Chief Cathy Lanier has approved only two of those people to legally carry a gun.   Continue reading “How to prove a ‘special’ danger to get a gun carry permit in DC”
