AP News:奥巴马总统为切尔西·曼宁减刑

This is AP News Minute.

President Obama commuted the 35-year prison sentence of Chelsea Manning, freeing her in May. Manning acknowledged leaking diplomatic cables and national security documents to Wikileaks for publication in 2010. Wikileaks' editor Julian Assange said on Twitter last week he would surrender to US authorities if Manning got clemency.

President-elect Donald Trump welcomed nearly 150 diplomats plus donors and incoming White House staffers to a dinner in Washington.

Orlando, Florida police caught the man accused of shooting and killing an Orlando police officer last week. Markeith Loyd was wearing body armor and carrying two handguns when he surrendered.

And a sinkhole nearly swallowed a truck in a parking lot northeast of Atlanta. Local officials say an old pipe beneath the parking lot apparently rusted away and caved in.
