News Wrap: Trump says U.S. won't support UN arms treaty

In our Friday news wrap, President Trump said the U.S. intends to withdraw support for the UN Arms Trade Treaty, which President Obama signed in 2013 but which the Senate never ratified. Trump told the NRA’s annual meeting the pact threatens Second Amendment freedoms. Also, Sri Lanka’s president said the suspected ringleader of the Easter Sunday attacks died in one of the hotel suicide bombings.
