Public Safety: Federal prosecutors charged a Raleigh-area man with threatening to kill President Trump and referencing pipe bombs in Facebook videos. Community & Culture: Gov. Josh Stein presented the Order of the Long Leaf Pine to Charlotte leaders including Mayor Vi Lyles and Panthers owner David Tepper.
