WILMINGTON, Del. — The Latest on Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial (all times local):
Jurors in Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial have heard from the former gun store clerk who sold him the the .38 caliber Colt revolver.
On Wednesday, the jury heard testimony from the clerk, Gordon Cleveland, who watched as the president’s son checked off “no” to the question of whether he was “an unlawful user of or addicted to” marijuana, stimulants, narcotics or any other controlled substance.
Federal prosecutors have argued Hunter Biden was in the throes of a heavy crack addiction when he bought the gun, and they’ve accused him of lying on the form.

Here’s the latest:
The courtroom grew quiet when Kathleen Buhle, who was married to Hunter for 20 years, walked in Wednesday.
She testified that she discovered her husband was using drugs when she found a crack pipe in an ashtray on their porch on July 3, 2015, a day after their anniversary.
When she confronted him, “he acknowledged smoking crack,” she said.
The case playing out in Wilmington, Delaware, stems from a gun Hunter Biden bought in October 2018, months before his father, Joe Biden, announced his bid for the presidency.
Take a look at some key witnesses in the trial.
