SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea is limiting entry to an industrial park in North Korea jointly run by the two Koreas.

WASHINGTON (AP) — After dozens of votes to overturn President Barack Obama's signature health care law, a repeal has finally made its way from Capitol Hill. The legislation, approved by the House, also cuts federal funding for Planned Parenthood. It passed the Senate last year under special rules protecting it from a Democratic filibuster and now heads to the White House and a certain veto. The GOP doesn't have the power for an override.

BALTIMORE (AP) — A Baltimore judge has ruled that a police officer facing charges stemming from the death of Freddie Gray must testify against a fellow officer at an upcoming trial. The judge ruled that William Porter, whose trial ended in a mistrial last month, can be compelled to take the stand in the trial of van driver Caesar Goodson. Goodson is facing the most serious charge of the six officers charged in the case.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — National leaders of the Bandidos biker gang have been indicted on charges accusing them of racketeering and waging deadly "war" on the rival Cossacks gang.
