    • USA Today Battles FBI Demand to Know Who Read Florida Shooting Story

  The agency is asking the newspaper’s publisher, Gannett, to provide information that includes IP addresses and “telephone or instruments numbers,” including serial numbers, of readers who accessed the story during a 35-minute period after the shooting took place on February 3, according to a subpoena in the case.

  The two agents in the case, Daniel Alfin and Laura Schwartzenberger, were killed in an exchange of gunfire during an attempt to arrest 55-year-old David Lee Huber, a suspect in a child pornography case. Huber also died in the incident, which means it isn’t clear who the FBI is attempting to locate.
