WASHINGTON (AP) — A woman suspected of sending an envelope containing the poison ricin, which was addressed to the White House, has been arrested at the New York-Canada border and is also suspected of sending similar poisoned envelopes to law enforcement agencies in Texas, officials said Monday.

The letter had been intercepted earlier this week before it reached the White House. The woman was taken into custody by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Peace Bridge border crossing near Buffalo and is expected to face federal charges, three law enforcement officials told The Associated Press.

Her name was not immediately released, but the woman was expected to appear in federal court in Buffalo on Tuesday.

The letter addressed to the White House appeared to have originated in Canada, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have said. It was intercepted at a government facility that screens mail addressed to the White House and President Donald Trump and a preliminary investigation indicated it tested positive for ricin, according to the officials.

Envelopes containing ricin were also mailed to law enforcement agencies in the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas, according to another law enforcement official. The official did not say which agencies were sent the envelopes but said they are believed to have been mailed by the same person who sent one to the White House.

The officials were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

One of the envelopes was sent to the police in Mission, Texas, said Investigator Art Flores, a spokesman for the border community’s police department. He said no one was hurt and that the envelope was in law enforcement’s custody. He declined to comment further.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Quebec confirmed Monday there is a police investigation taking place on a street in St-Hubert, Quebec, related to the contaminated letter sent to the White House.

The home is connected to the woman who was arrested at the border and although authorities have yet to determine whether she actually lived in the house, “there is a clear link between her and this residence,” Royal Canadian Mounted Police Cpl. Charles Poirier said.

There have been several prior instances in which U.S. officials have been targeted with ricin sent through the mail.

A Navy veteran was arrested in 2018 and confessed to sending envelopes to Trump and members of his administration that contained the substance from which ricin is derived. The letters were intercepted, and no one was hurt.

In 2014, a Mississippi man was sentenced to 25 years in prison after sending letters dusted with ricin to President Barack Obama and other officials.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal officials intercepted an envelope addressed to the White House that contained the poison ricin, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press on Saturday.

The letter was intercepted at a government facility that screens mail addressed to the White House and President Donald Trump, the official said. A preliminary investigation indicated it tested positive for ricin, a poison found naturally in castor beans, the official said.

The official was not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Federal investigators were working to determine where the enveloped originated and who mailed it. The FBI, the Secret Service and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service were leading the investigation.

In a statement, the FBI said agents were working to investigate “a suspicious letter received at a U.S. government mail facility” and that there is “no known threat to public safety.”

Authorities said the man, William Clyde Allen III, sent the envelopes with ground castor beans to the president, FBI Director Christopher Wray, along with then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, then-CIA Director Gina Haspel, Adm. John Richardson, who at the time was the Navy’s top officer, and then-Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson. The letters were intercepted, and no one was hurt.

The Sergeant then asked the driver for a driver’s license. The driver indicated she did not have one.&nbsp; The Sergeant inquired as to driver’s name and if the vehicle was registered in her name. 

The driver acknowledged that it was registered in her name. With that information, the Sergeant closed the door and&nbsp; returned to his patrol unit. The Sergeant ran the driver’s name and began working on the citation. 

The Sergeant then learned that the driver had two active warrants through Topeka Municipal Court. The Sergeant contacted an officer in the area to respond as back up.

Driver’s description of the encounter:

Driver states that she was going to pick her daughter up because she did not have a ride. Driver
was near 10th and Gage, there was a car in front of her waiting to turn left and she was stuck behind that
car in the middle of the intersection. The police was right behind her and she was in the middle of the
intersection. The officer (Sergeant) turned on his lights as soon as she made her turn. He asked where
she was headed, and Driver explained that she was going to pick up her daughter a block and a half
away from where they were. Officer told her she ran a red light and she explained that she was in the
middle of the intersection. He then advised her that the other vehicle ran the light as well. He asked for
ID and Driver explained that she didn’t bring it with her. He then asked her for her name and she gave it
to him. She then waited in the car while he went back to his vehicle. He then returned and opened her
driver’s side door and asked her to turn off the vehicle twice. Driver complied and turned vehicle off.
Driver knew that her driver’s license was suspended so she asked the officer if her daughter could pick
up the car. Driver and the officer had a conversation about possibly calling her daughter to pick up car.
The officer asked Driver to exit the vehicle twice; she advised him that she did not have a problem
getting out. She began to get out of the vehicle. She indicates that she was getting out slowly due to
medical reasons. As soon as she exited the vehicle, the officer twisted her arm. Driver advised the officer
that she would turn around, that it wasn’t necessary for him to grab her that she would do it. Officer
stated that she should have done it and that she replied that he had not given her a chance to comply.
Driver was then placed in a “full nelson” where she couldn’t move. Officer then swung the Driver around
and slammed her to the ground with the officer landing on top of her. Driver described herself as being
mad and the officer not caring. Driver told officer to go to hell. Driver was then taken to the patrol car
and knew she could not see out of her right eye. Driver indicates she said, “you fucked my eye up”, and
that the officer replied, “yeah”. Driver stated that the entire right side of her body was in pain, that she
had been diagnosed with a mass on her kidney and that her arm was slipping out of place and that’s
why she wanted to turn around herself and was then dislocated during this incident. Driver then saw the
ambulance and that both the male and female medics spoke to her. The male medic indicated that she
needed to go to the hospital. That the officer then opened the door and watched the Driver the entire
time while she was being diagnosed. That the EMT would look at her then look at the officer. When
Driver began explaining to the EMT what had happened that the officer screamed that she (Driver)
didn’t have to tell them (EMT’s) her story. That Driver then told the officer that he knew that what you
did was wrong. That officer stated, “she looks fine to me” and slammed the door. Driver wanted to go to
the hospital, even if she went to jail later. Driver does not understand why she was not allowed to go in
the ambulance. Driver yelled that she wanted a supervisor and the officer told her that one was coming.
Driver explained to the supervisor (Lieutenant) that she was not against the police and felt that if you
“do the crime then you do the time”. She stated that the officer did not have to do that to her, that she
was hurt and wanted to turn around herself but the officer didn’t give her the chance. The supervisor
got her out of the patrol vehicle, introduced her to another officer (Officer 2), her handcuffs were
loosened and she was taken to the hospital. At the hospital, she was wheel chaired in and was there for
2-3 hours. That she was diagnosed with a fractured nose and bleeding behind her right eye. That a
specialist was called and the doctor arranged for Driver to be seen at KU Med in Kansas City. The officer
then gave her the ticket from the arresting officer and placed it in her pocket. The officer removed the
handcuffs and told Driver she was free to go. Driver was wheeled out to her family and was told to go to
KU due to the bleeding behind her eye. Driver went to KU and was treated, she was told that the
bleeding was caused by the fractured nose and that so long as the nostrils are open that she would not&nbsp; require surgery and she should get her eye sight back. Driver reiterated that there was no reason for the
officer to think that she was not going to cooperate, that the officer hurt her permanently and should
have let her get help. That she heard the officer talk to someone over the radio and said that she just
had a “little goose egg”. That the officer told EMTs that she did not have life threatening injuries and
they just drove away. That the officer didn’t care that she was just sitting there bleeding. That she was
in pain and was not trying to fight, that all she had on was a sundress and flip-flops, that it was not
necessary.

SWAT standoff leads to arrest of Kan. rape suspect

BEIJING (AP) — The U.S. on Tuesday issued a sweeping new advisory warning against travel to mainland China and Hong Kong, citing the risk of “arbitrary detention” and “arbitrary enforcement of local laws.”

The advisory is likely to heighten tensions between the sides that have spiked since Beijing’s imposition on Hong Kong of a strict new national security law in June that has already been met with a series of U.S. punitive actions.

The statement warned U.S. citizens that China imposes “arbitrary detention and exit bans” to compel cooperation with investigations, pressure family members to return to China from abroad, influence civil disputes and “gain bargaining leverage over foreign governments.”

“U.S. citizens traveling or residing in China or Hong Kong, may be detained without access to U.S. consular services or information about their alleged crime. U.S. citizens may be subjected to prolonged interrogations and extended detention without due process of law,” the advisory said.

In Hong Kong, China “unilaterally and arbitrarily exercises police and security power,” the advisory said, adding that new legislation also covers offenses committed by non-Hong Kong residents or organizations outside of Hong Kong, possibly subjecting U.S. citizens who have publicly criticized China to a “heightened risk of arrest, detention, expulsion, or prosecution.”

When in Hong Kong, U.S. citizens are “strongly cautioned to be aware of their surroundings and avoid demonstrations,” the advisory said.

Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin told reporters at a daily briefing Tuesday that the U.S. should “fully respect the facts and should not engage in unwarranted political manipulation” when issuing such advisories.

“China has always protected the safety and legal rights of foreigners in China in accordance with law. China is one of the safest countries in the world,” Wang said. “Of course, foreigners in China also have an obligation to abide by Chinese laws.”

Last month, the Trump administration suspended or terminated three bilateral agreements with Hong Kong covering extradition and tax exemptions, citing Beijing’s violation of its pledge for Hong Kong to retain broad autonomy for 50 years after the former British colony’s 1997 handover to Chinese rule.

Other Western nations have also suspended their extradition treaties with Hong Kong following the national security’s law’s passage.

The U.S. has also acted to end special trade and commercial privileges that Hong Kong had enjoyed and has imposed sanctions on Hong Kong and Chinese officials, including Hong Kong’s pro-Beijing leader Carrie Lam, involved in enforcing the new security law.

Tensions between Beijing and Washington have hit their lowest point in decades amid simmering disputes over trade, technology, Taiwan, Tibet, the South China Sea, the coronavirus pandemic and, most recently, Hong Kong. The impact of the tensions has been felt in the tit-for-tat closures of diplomatic missions as well as visa restrictions on students and journalists.

The latest travel advisory did not offer any new warnings regarding COVID-19 in mainland China and Hong Kong, but referred travelers to earlier notices advising Americans to avoid the regions and return home from them if possible.

President Donald Trump has assigned full blame to Beijing for the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S., deflecting criticism of his own handling of the pandemic that threatens his reelection.

The virus was first detected in the central Chinese city of Wuhan late last year, leading to the global pandemic. Critics have accused Beijing of an initial cover-up attempt, although Trump himself has admitted to downplaying the severity of the virus as early as February.

China appears to have contained the virus within its borders, reporting no new cases of domestic infection in a month, while Hong Kong has also radically brought down its numbers of new cases.

BEIJING (AP) — The U.S. on Tuesday issued a sweeping new advisory warning against travel to mainland China and Hong Kong, citing the risk of “arbitrary detention” and “arbitrary enforcement of local laws.”The advisory is likely to heighten tensions between the sides that have spiked since Beijing’s imposition on Hong Kong of a strict new national security law in June that has already been met with a series of U.S. punitive actions.The statement warned U.S. citizens that China imposes “arbitrary detention and exit bans” to compel cooperation with investigations, pressure family members to return to China from abroad, influence civil disputes and “gain bargaining leverage over foreign governments.”“U.S. citizens traveling or residing in China or Hong Kong, may be detained without access to U.S. consular services or information about their alleged crime.

Police make multiple arrests in Kan. gambling bust

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A man who fired shots at employees outside Arrowhead Stadium was arrested Saturday after a daylong standoff.

Kansas City police spokesman Capt. David Jackson said the man arrived at the Truman Sports Complex around 10:30 a.m. Saturday and fired several shots at employees but did not hit anyone. The man was arrested shortly after 6 p.m. on suspicion of several charges related to the shooting.

Jackson said the man pointed guns during the standoff and at some times he placed the guns in his waistband as he moved around a parking lot. Jackson said the man didn’t appear to have any connection to the Kansas City Chiefs or Royals.

During the standoff, some stadium employees took shelter inside the complex.

The Kansas City Royals’ game against the Pittsburgh Pirates was delayed about half an hour because of the standoff but was able to be played after the man was arrested.

KANSAS CITY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a suspect arrested after a standoff Saturday afternoon at Truman Sports Complex in Kansas City.

KANSAS CITY– A Kansas City man has been charged in federal court with drug trafficking and illegally possessing firearms after law enforcement officers found firearms and large quantities of illegal drugs in his vehicle at the Argosy Casino, according to the United State's Attorney.

Dominick A. Campos, 40, was charged in a two-count complaint filed in the U.S. District Court in Kansas City on Wednesday, Sept. 9.

The federal criminal complaint charges Campos with one count of possessing methamphetamine with the intent to distribute and one count of possessing firearms in furtherance of drug trafficking.
