WASHINGTON (AP) — The FBI confirms that agents are investigating a cyberattack involving the Democratic National Committee that resulted in the release this weekend of embarrassing emails. Emails arising from the hack were posted over the weekend to WikiLeaks. They revealed that the DNC may have favored Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the party's presidential primaries. Their release led party chief Debbie Wasserman Schultz to announce her resignation. A cybersecurity firm that looked into the DNC breach found traces of at least two sophisticated hacking groups on the Democrats' network — both of which have ties to the Russian government.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bernie Sanders' delegates are waiting to see whether the Vermont senator frees them to vote for Hillary Clinton in tomorrow's roll call. Sanders won 1,846 pledged delegates from primaries and caucuses. Meanwhile, a Sanders delegate says the yelling and chanting might not be over for outgoing Democratic chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The Florida congresswoman was booed and heckled as she spoke to her home-state delegation today. A California delegate says she expects disruptions if Wasserman Schultz takes the convention stage as planned.

ANSBACH, Germany (AP) — The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for a suicide attack in Ansbach, Germany, that wounded 15. A news agency that is linked to IS said the attack was carried out by "one of the soldiers of the Islamic State." Authorities say a failed asylum-seeker from Syria blew himself up after being turned away from an open-air music festival in southern Germany. It was the fourth attack to shake Germany in a week — three of them carried out by recent migrants.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Hundreds of law enforcement officers from around Louisiana and around the country are among the many mourners who've been paying their respects to a slain Baton Rouge police officer at the visitation ahead of his funeral. They filed quietly this morning past the black coffin holding the body of Montrell Jackson. Jackson is the third and final Baton Rouge law enforcement officer killed in an ambush last week to be buried.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — A University of Iowa football player says he was playing "Pokemon Go" in a public park when he was mistaken for a suspected bank robber, surrounded by police and searched at gunpoint. Faith Ekakitie writes on Facebook that he feared for his life. He says a bank had been robbed nearby and that he matched the suspect's description of a "large black male, wearing all black, with something on top of his head" -- in his case, goggles. But he adds that he understands why police did what they did. He says he had headphones in and didn't respond to police commands. He thanks Iowa City police for their professionalism. A police spokesman chalks up the episode to "unfortunate timing."
