WASHINGTON, May 23 (Reuters) - Officers shot a suspect who fired at a White House checkpoint on Saturday evening, who then died after being taken to the hospital, the Secret Service said. A person approached the checkpoint at 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue near the White House, pulled a gun out of his bag and started shooting at officers, according to a Secret Service statement posted on social media. Officers returned fire and shot the suspect, the agency said. A bystander was also struck by gunfire, but it was not clear how badly the person was hurt, according to a separate Secret Service statement cited by multiple news outlets. The statement said it was not clear who fired the shot that hit the bystander. The shooting suspect was identified as an emotionally disturbed person, a law enforcement official told Reuters, adding that a "stay-away order" had been issued to him previously. No law enforcement personnel were injured, the Secret Service said. President Donald Trump was at the White House during the incident, the Secret Service said.

HAVANA, May 22 (Reuters) - Thousands of Cubans gathered on Friday before the U.S. embassy in Havana to protest a U.S. decision to indict former president Raul Castro over the downing of two civilian airplanes 30 years ago. The pro-government demonstration, which began shortly after sunrise on Havana's waterfront, came as Cuban officials rallied this week around the island's revolutionary hero. The 94-year-old elder statesman was not present. Cuban lawmaker Gerardo Hernandez, a national hero and former spy, conveyed a message thanking the Cuban people and friends around the world for their solidarity. "As long as I live, I will remain at the forefront of the Revolution, with one foot in the stirrup," Hernandez quoted Castro as saying. Thousands of Cubans waved flags during the nearly hour-long rally, chanting "Viva Raul!" and "Patria o Muerte (Homeland or Death)!". President Miguel Diaz-Canel and Prime Minister Manuel Marrero attended the rally, as did several of Castro's family, including daughter Mariela Castro, son Alejandro Castro and grandson Raul Rodriguez Castro. Rodriguez Castro, known in Cuba as "Raulito" (Little Raul) or "El Cangrejo" (The Crab), often serves as his grandfather's bodyguard and met last week with CIA Director John Ratcliffe during a rare visit by a U.S. spy chief to Havana. Mariela Castro, interviewed shortly after the protest, told Cuban state-run media that her father was doing fine. "Raul is doing very well, very calm, like an old guerrilla fighter; he observes and smiles. He always said: 'No one takes me alive; they'll catch me fighting,'" she said. Cuba says Castro's indictment on murder charges on Wednesday was based on "spurious" allegations designed to serve as a pretext to invade as President Donald Trump's administration pushes to upend the island's government.

WASHINGTON, May 22 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday he would not attend the wedding of his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., to Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson, because he has to stay in Washington for government business. "While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the Trump Family, his soon to be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to Government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. "I feel it is important for me to remain in Washington, D.C., at the White House during this important period of time," the post continued. The wedding happens this weekend on a small island in the Bahamas, CNN reported on Thursday, citing two people familiar with the plans.A spokesperson for Trump Jr. did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Trump told reporters on Thursday that Trump Jr. wanted his father to attend, but that it was going to be a "small private affair." Trump said then he would try to make the wedding, but the timing was bad for him. "I have a thing called Iran and other things," Trump said on Thursday. The Trump administration has been engaged in diplomatic talks mediated by Pakistan aimed at securing a deal to end the war with Iran that the U.S. and Israel began on February 28. Trump had originally planned to spend the night at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, on Friday after an event in New York’s Hudson Valley, but he will now return to the White House, according to a change in his public schedule released on Friday afternoon. Trump Jr.'s engagement to Anderson is his third. He was married to his previous wife, Vanessa, a former model and actress, for 12 years, and they have five children together. Vanessa filed for a divorce in 2018. He was later engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle, a U.S. television personality, until they separated in 2024.

Earlier this week we learned that Don Trump Jr.'s first wife, Vanessa Trump, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. the 48-year-old disclosed her diagnosis Wednesday on Instagram. She said she is "focused and hopeful" and surrounded by the support of her family. Vanessa Trump and President Trump's eldest son have five children together. Vanessa is currently dating golf legend Tiger Woods.

May 22 (Reuters) - The closure of one of the runways at New York's LaGuardia airport, which was caused by a sinkhole on Wednesday, is expected to continue until early Saturday, snarling flights for the busy Memorial Day travel period, the airport authority said. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which manages New York City area airports, said inspections using ground-penetrating radar on Thursday identified potential areas of concern on the runway that were repaired, and engineering crews are conducting additional inspections on Friday. Crews expect to complete surveys and any repairs by 6 a.m. on Saturday. About 150 flights, or 13%, have been delayed as of 9 a.m. on Friday. Hundreds of flights have been delayed or canceled since Wednesday. The Transportation Security Administration expects around 18 million air passengers over the Memorial Day holiday travel period, which typically marks the beginning of the busy summer travel season.
