SACRAMENTO (AP) — A state lawmaker has been charged with two misdemeanors for trying to bring a loaded handgun onto a flight to the state capital last month, the San Bernardino County District Attorney's office said Friday. Assemblyman Tim Donnelly was charged with illegally carrying a loaded firearm and possessing a prohibited item in a secure area of Ontario International Airport. Donnelly, an outspoken advocate for gun-owners' rights, was detained after a Colt .45 with four rounds was discovered inside his carry-on bag on Jan. 4.
