The Navy says an initial inspection at Naval Medical Center San Diego found no sign of a gunman or a shooting.

Navy spokesman N. Scott Sutherland said Tuesday that military police had checked Building 26 after a person reported hearing three shots in the basement earlier in the day.

The base remained on lockdown as authorities went from room to room and led personnel out of the facility.

School officials say a lockdown has ended and instruction has resumed at three schools near the medical center.

In addition, TV images showed uniformed Navy personnel walking outside the medical facility. Their hands were in the air and they were being patted down by base police as a precaution.

The Navy hospital previously said on its Facebook page that an active shooter was reported and people were told to run, hide or fight.

ST. MARY, Nebraska (AP) — A malfunctioning gambling device at a Nebraska bar generated several big winning tickets, leaving prosecutors wondering whether crimes were committed.

A keno machine randomly generates numbers, and players place bets on combinations of numbers that they choose. Bettors win if their numbers match what is generated by the machine.

About seven people matched numbers for prizes under $500 on Oct. 31 at Smartville Station bar in St. Mary. The next day, someone won $6,000 and another person won $3,000.

Cass County Keno LLC determined that a software glitch caused the machine to repeat certain numbers in a pattern. Bar owner Susan Goracke says someone figured out the pattern and spread the word. The machine has been removed.

Johnson County Attorney Rick Smith says he’s still deciding whether anyone will be prosecuted.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — Nipples can be exposed in Springfield while the American Civil Liberties Union makes its case that a new ordinance violates the Constitution and state law.

A judge granted a temporary injunction in the case Friday in federal court. It leaves in place a narrower indecent exposure ordinance.

The issue heated up last summer.

That’s when two women affiliated with an organization called “Free the Nipple” held a topless rally to dispute a city ordinance on exposure. After that rally, the city council passed a stricter ordinance that requires most of the female breast and all buttocks to be covered.

The ACLU argues that the new ordinance criminalizes free expression by women and subjects them to “inferior legal status.”

Besides the injunction, proceedings on the case have been stayed for 60 days.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri will be spending the next few days on a St. Louis County jury hearing a civil case. McCaskill, a Democrat, posted several messages on Twitter throughout the day Monday as she waited to find out if she would be selected for the jury.

The senator, a former prosecutor, said early in the day that she didn’t expect to be chosen.

But after a day of tweeting about the television shows the jury pool was watching, what she wore and what was for lunch, the senator was surprised to be chosen.

McCaskill tweeted: “HOLY X@#(asterisk)! I am on the jury” then stopped using social media.

Details of the case McCaskill was chosen for were not immediately available.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — More than 80 Missouri inmates sentenced to life in prison as teenagers have a chance at freedom following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling.

The high court ruled Monday that its 2012 ruling banning mandatory life without parole sentences for juvenile murderers applies to those previously convicted.

The ruling says inmates must be given a chance at release. That could either mean a resentencing or a chance at parole.

A spokeswoman says the Missouri attorney general’s office is reviewing the ruling.

The ruling came as state lawmakers are again pushing to change Missouri law on juvenile sentencing to come into compliance with the 2012 ruling.

Sen. Bob Dixon says Missouri has no alternative sentence that’s constitutional for minors convicted of first-degree murder other than life in prison without parole.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Secretary of State Kris Kobach is proposing to have Kansas counties audit voting results immediately after the state’s primary and general elections.

Kobach outlined a measure Monday that would require all counties to manually audit 1 percent of their election returns, starting with state elections in 2018.

The Kansas House Elections Committee agreed to sponsor his proposal as a bill.

The Republican secretary of state said the measure is a response to calls for his office to allow private parties to audit election equipment. He said state law doesn’t currently allow it.

A Wichita State University mathematician sued the Sedgwick County election commissioner to gain access to voting machine tapes from November 2014 to research what she believes are statistical anomalies. A trial is set for March 22.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A top lawmaker says he plans to file a complaint with the Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission seeking an investigation into Gov. Sam Brownback’s use of campaign donations to pay more than $167,000 in legal fees last year. The payments came as a federal grand jury was investigating loans his running mate, Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer, made to their 2014 re-election effort.

Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley said Monday he also plans to ask the ethics panel for an advisory opinion on the legality of a candidate using campaign funds as collateral.

Eileen Hawley, spokeswoman for the governor’s office, said in an email Monday speaking on behalf of Colyer that the campaign complied with all laws and regulations and that the investigation into the loans did not result in charges.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s office is pursuing three new criminal cases against people it alleges voted illegally in Kansas and other states.

Kobach told a Kansas House committee Monday of the new cases.

His office has filed a total of six cases since legislators enacted a law last year to give it prosecutorial power.

One new case is in Johnson County against Michael L. Hannum. He lives in Omaha, Nebraska, and said prosecutors’ offices both places told him they weren’t going to file cases.

Another case is in Ellis County. Defendant Randall K. Kilian lives in Castle Rock, Colorado and said he said he knew nothing about it.

A third new case is in Sedgwick County case against Ron R. Weems. He didn’t return a telephone message seeking comment.

 

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — The Wichita school district says seven years after it ended mandatory busing, nearly a quarter of the district’s 85 schools are considered single-race schools.

Single-race schools have 60 percent or more of students of one race.

The Wichita Eagle reports some schools in predominantly black neighborhoods lost the racial balance they achieved with forced busing. Minority student enrollment has dropped up to 40 percent in some schools in predominantly white neighborhoods, while some schools in mostly Hispanic schools have more than 95 percent Hispanic students.

The Wichita district is spending millions every year to persuade families to enroll in certain schools.

Superintendent John Allison says the district has a wide array of schools and it is ultimately up to parents to decide which school their children will attend.

BLOOMFIELD, Mo. (AP) — A former southeast Missouri pastor has been convicted of plotting the ultimately foiled killing of his wife in a planned house fire.

The Dexter Daily Stateman reports that a Stoddard County jury convicted 70-year-old Donald Lafferty of counts of attempted murder, arson, armed criminal action and financial exploitation of the elderly.

Prosecutors say Lafferty agreed to pay Brandi and Christopher Hicks $15,000 to set fire to his home in January 2013, and another $5,000 if his wife died in the fire.

The fire badly damaged the home but Mildred Lafferty awoke and escaped. She has since divorced her husband.

Donald Lafferty remains jailed without bond, pending sentencing scheduled for March 9.
