Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford dies at age 46 TORONTO (AP) — Rob Ford, the pugnacious, popu- list former mayor of Toronto whose career crashed in a drug-driven, obscenity-laced debacle, died Tuesday after ¿ghting cancer, his family said. He was 46. Ford rode into of¿ce on a backlash against urban elites. He cast an image sharply at odds with Cana- da’s reputation for sedate, unpretentious politics. His tenure as mayor of the country’s largest city was marred by revelations about his drinking problems and illegal drug use. He was repeatedly videotaped and photographed while intoxi- cated in public. Nevertheless, he was later elected by a landslide to a city council seat, a job he held until his death. One after another, his statements and actions as mayor became nightly fodder for TV comedians and an embarrassment to many of the suburbanites he championed. Among the more notable: — Knocking over a 63-year-old female city coun- cilor while rushing Ford to the defense of his brother, Councilor Doug Ford, who was insulting spectators in the council chamber. — Threatening “murder” in a profane, incoherent rant captured by video. — Swearing and slurring his words, calling the police chief a derogatory name and trying to imitate a Jamaican accent in a different video. But his popu- larity continued. Even after a scandal broke about Ford’s use of crack cocaine, hundreds of people lined up for bobblehead dolls of the mayor, signed by Ford himself. Ford spent countless hours taking pictures with residents eager to be photographed with an international celeb- rity. As he sought a second term as mayor in 2014, Ford was diagnosed with a rare cancer just two months before the election date. Malignant liposarcoma in his abdomen forced him to do what months of scandals could not — drop his bid for re-election. He underwent a series of aggressive chemo- therapy treatments. “With heavy hearts and profound sadness, the Ford family announces the passing of their beloved son, brother, husband, and father, Coun- cillor Rob Ford, earlier today at the age of 46,” a statement from his family said Tuesday. “A dedicated man of the people, Councillor Ford spent his life serving the citizens of Toronto.” Current Toronto Mayor John Tory said Ford was a “profoundly human guy” and said “the city is reeling with this news.” Authorities want charge for mom of 4-year-old who shot her PALATKA, Fla. (AP) — The mother of a 4-year-old boy who shot her as they were riding in a pickup truck should face a misdemeanor charge, authorities said Tuesday as they released details of the shooting for the ¿rst time. The mother, 31-year-old Jamie Gilt, put a loaded .45-caliber handgun under- neath the front seat of her pickup on March 8 and the weapon slid into the back seat where her son Lane was riding in a child booster seat, Putnam County Sheriff’s Capt. Gator DeLoach said. The boy had recently learned how to unbuckle himself, got out of his seat and picked up the gun. He ¿red through the front seat, hitting his mother in the back. There was also a dinosaur toy on the Àoor near where the gun would have slid, according to a police report. “She felt something strike her in the back, then noticed the windshield of her truck was broken,” DeLoach said. The bullet had exited through her chest and gone through the windshield. The child was uninjured. Gilt was hospitalized but DeLoach wasn’t sure of her current condition or whether she was still there. Investigators gave her time to recuperate before inter- viewing her at the hospital last Tuesday. Gilt was apparently a gun lover who made numerous social media postings about gun rights, including one about teaching her 4-year-old to shoot. DeLoach wouldn’t talk about that at a news conference, saying investiga- tors only focused narrowly on what happened March 8. He wouldn’t con¿rm Gilt’s gun advocacy or the reports that she had taught Lane how to shoot. A community Facebook page listed under Jamie Gilt for Gun Sense was ¿lled with posts advocating for gun rights, including a quote that said “My right to protect my child with my gun trumps 3624 or rubymgray79@gmail. com) DOMESTIC VIOLENCE/ SEXUAL ASSAULT WOMEN’S SUPPORT GROUP, 6-7:30 p.m., Hermiston.

The Associated Press was unable to verify whether the page, which has since been taken down, belonged to Gilt. Authorities said they are recommending a charge of allowing a child access to a ¿rearm, which is punishable by up to 180 days in jail, DeLoach said. It will be up to prosecutors, who are reviewing the case, to decide whether to ¿le the charge or any others. Gilt has not been arrested. A message left for her was not immediately returned.
