WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on an Army soldier from Fort Riley accused of sharing bomb-making instructions online and targeting left-leaning activists (all times local):

The presidential campaign of former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke says it is in direct contact with the FBI regarding the case of an Army soldier accused of sharing bomb-making instructions online and targeting left-leaning activists.

When an FBI undercover agent asked Jarrett William Smith if there was anyone in Texas who would be a good fit for “fire, destruction and death,” Smith reportedly replied, “Outside of Beto? I don’t know enough people that would be relevant enough to cause a change if they died.”

O’Rourke spokeswoman Aleigha Cavalier said in an emailed statement that they take any threat like this very seriously. The campaign says this isn’t about any one person or one campaign, and they “won’t let this scare us or cause us to back down in fighting for what’s right.”

The 24-year-old soldier was stationed at Fort Riley in Kansas.

RILEY COUNTY — The trial of a Manhattan man charged in the death of a baby ended Tuesday when the jury was not able to reach a  unanimous verdict, according to the Riley County Attorney’s office.

D’Khari Lyons, 24, was accused of first degree murder and child abuse for an incident on November 8, 2018. That morning, the Riley County Police Department Emergency Dispatch Center received a 911 call concerning 2½-month-old Michael Calver Jr. not breathing in East Manhattan.  Lyons had been been responsible for watching the child.

The baby was transported to Via Christi in Manhattan then subsequently air-lifted to Children’s Mercy in Kansas City where he died.

Lyons was arrested on a Riley County District Court warrant for First Degree Murder and Abuse of a Child.

Prosecutors said Lyons hurt the child to stop him from crying. Lyons testified he wouldn’t hurt a child and didn’t know what caused Michael’s injuries.

A hearing on the case is scheduled for Oct. 7 to determine how to proceed, according to the Riley County Attorney’s office..

Public meeting Thursday to discuss Manhattan’s smoking ordinance

MANHATTAN— The City of Manhattan has drafted an ordinance combining the Smoking and E-Cigarette ordinances for the City Commission to consider on October 8. City staff will hold a public meeting for any interested stakeholders and the public to discuss the draft ordinance on Thursday, September 26, from 5:30-6:30 pm in the City Commission Room of City Hall, 1101 Poyntz Avenue. A copy of the draft ordinance is available for review online at https://cityofmhk.com/DocumentCenter/View/56193/Smoking-Vaping-ORD-Discussion-DRAFT.

In 2008, a petition-referendum process occurred to place an ordinance on the general election ballot that would prohibit smoking in public places and places of employment. The referendum passed by the local electorate, and on January 4, 2009 the ordinance went into effect city-wide. State law allows for the petition-referendum process, and if a referendum passes, it cannot be repealed or amended by the local governing body for 10 years.

Shortly after the local referendum, the State of Kansas passed the Indoor Clean Air Act related to smoking in public places and places of employment in 2010. The state law is similar to Manhattan’s ordinance, but is stricter in certain areas. In 2016, the City Commission passed a separate, but similar ordinance related to the use of e-cigarettes in public places and places of employment.

As of January 4, 2019, the no smoking ordinance is still in effect, but can now be amended or repealed by the governing body. The Flint Hills Wellness Coalition (FHWC) has requested the City Commission combine the two ordinances and clean up some of the ambiguities and differences so it can be enforced consistently. City Staff has prepared a draft ordinance, and will present the ordinance in full detail at the September 26 public meeting, as well as discuss any changes between the two existing ordinances and answer any questions.

On October 8, 2019, at 5:30 p.m. the City Commission will have a Work Session to discuss the draft ordinance. There will be an opportunity for the public at the Work Session to provide comment on the draft ordinance to the City Commission. There will not be a vote on the ordinance at the Work Session. The City Commission will provide feedback on the draft ordinance at that time and give direction to staff on scheduling the ordinance for a vote during a future legislative meeting.

Information about the City of Manhattan and current ordinances is available online at www.cityofmhk.com or by calling the City Manager’s Office at 785-587-2404 during regular business hours.

Prosecutor: ‘Satanist’ soldier at Fort Riley sought to overthrow government

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The Latest on the criminal case involving an Army solider charged with distributing explosives information online (all times local):

5p.m.

A prosecutor says an Army soldier charged with distributing information about making explosives online is a Satanist who wanted to overthrow the U.S. government.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Anthony Mattivi said during a federal court hearing Thursday in Kansas that 24-year-old Jarrett William Smith had a specific plan to overthrow the government and told the FBI he was distributing information on explosives “for the glory of his Satanist religion.”

But an attorney for Smith said he is only an internet “troll” who was “spouting off online” and sharing widely available information.

Smith pleaded not guilty to two federal charges of distributing explosives information and a third alleging he threatened to set fire to the home owned by a far-left-leaning “antifa” member. A federal magistrate ordered him detained until his trial.

By JOHN HANNA 

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A federal grand jury in Kansas has indicted an Army soldier on charges that he distributed explosives information and threatened to set fire to a home.

The indictment charged Jarrett William Smith with two counts related to the explosives and one count linked to trying to gain entry to a home and injure someone listed only as D.H. The indictment alleges he made the threat from Kansas to Michigan.

The 24-year-old private first class and infantry soldier from South Carolina is stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. He was initially charged in a criminal complaint on Monday. He remains in custody pending a detention hearing Thursday afternoon.

His defense attorney, Rich Federico, declined to comment.

An FBI affidavit filed in support of the initial charges alleged Smith discussed his plan to kill far-left-leaning “antifa” activists and described how to build a bomb that could be triggered by calling a cellphone. It accuses him of posting on Facebook that he was interested in traveling to Ukraine to fight with a paramilitary group known as Azov Batallion. That affidavit had also alleged Smith suggested targeting an unidentified major news network with a car bomb.

Smith has been assigned to Fort Riley since June after serving at Fort Bliss, Texas, beginning in November 2017. He entered the Army from Conway, South Carolina, as an infantryman and completed training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He has not deployed.

Television station WPDE reported that when Smith was a 15-year-old student, he appeared on the “hit list” of another teenager who tried in September 2010 to blow up a high school in Socastee, South Carolina. The indictment makes no reference to that incident.

The station reported that Christian Helms, then 14, brought a gun and other weapons to the school, firing a shot at the school resource officer. Helms had also brought pipe bombs to the school in his backpack and had a list of 13 students who were his intended targets. Smith was among them.

WPDE-TV released a video interview recorded in 2011 in which they interviewed Smith and his father after Helms was sentenced to six years. In it, Smith said he was often bullied at school because of his cleft pallet.

His father, Chris Smith, told the station that the teenager who targeted his son idolized the two killers in the Columbine high school attack in 1999.

US probe of vaping illnesses focuses on THC from marijuana

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. health officials said Friday that their investigation into an outbreak of severe vaping-related illnesses is increasingly focused on products that contain the marijuana compound THC.

Most of the 800 people who got sick vaped THC, the ingredient in marijuana that causes a high, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But officials said they didn’t know if the THC is the problem or some other substance added to the vaping liquid, such as thickeners.

“The outbreak currently is pointing to a greater concern around THC-containing products,” said the CDC’s Dr. Anne Schuchat.

So far, investigators have not identified a particular electronic cigarette, vaping device, liquid or ingredient behind the outbreak. But officials say patients have mentioned the name Dank Vapes most frequently. Many of the people who got sick in Illinois and Wisconsin said they used prefilled THC cartridges sold in Dank Vapes packaging.

“It’s a generic product name that doesn’t really tie back to one store or one distributor,” said Dr. Jennifer Layden, chief medical officer for the Illinois Department of Public Health.

“Folks are getting it from friends or folks on the street, with no understanding of where it came from prior to that,” she said Friday.

Until a cause is pinned down, the CDC continues to advise Americans to consider avoiding all vaping products, though the agency on Friday added the phrase “particularly those containing THC.”

“We didn’t feel comfortable dropping the broader recommendation yet,” said Schuchat.

This week, the CDC reported 805 confirmed and probable cases of the lung illness. Thirteen people have died. Only the U.S. has reported such an outbreak, although Canadian officials this week confirmed that country’s first case.

On Friday, the agency provided more details in two reports:

— The first case in the U.S. began in late March. Cases ramped up in late June and rose dramatically in late July.

— Median age for the illnesses is 23. But the median age of those who died is much older — 50.

— Nationally, 9 in 10 cases required hospitalization. Many young and previously healthy adolescents and young adults needed machines to help them breathe.

—The most illnesses have occurred in California, Illinois, Texas and Wisconsin.

— In Illinois and Wisconsin, patients mentioned 87 different product names and many vaped more than one.

Doctors say the illnesses resemble an inhalation injury. Symptoms have included shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, diarrhea and vomiting.

Officials continue to find a substantial numbers of U.S. patients — the new report says 16% — who said they vaped only nicotine, and not THC. But the report noted that in Wisconsin, five patients who initially denied using products with THC turned out to have used them.

In Wisconsin and Illinois, recreational marijuana use is currently illegal.

Since 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has lightly regulated the manufacture and ingredients used in nicotine-based e-cigarettes. But there is no FDA review of THC products, which are illegal under federal law.

The outbreak of illnesses and a surge in underage use of e-cigarettes has brought demands for tighter regulation from politicians, public health officials and parents.
