De Wine decides to abandon red flag law

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine won't ask the Republican-controlled state Legislature for a "red flag" law or mandatory background checks on private gun sales.

Those were ideas the GOP governor proposed two months ago, days after a mass shooting in Dayton that left 10 people dead and 27 injured.

Monday, he retreated from those proposals, opting instead for legislation he said lawmakers and Second Amendment advocates might support – or at least not tank immediately.
