Russia Frees US Pastor Jailed for Importing Bullets

The Associated Press:
An American pastor walked free Tuesday after spending nearly five months in a Russian jail for bringing hunting-rifle ammunition into the country. The release of Phillip Miles, 58, came a day after the Moscow City Court reduced his three-year sentence for smuggling and ordered him set free. Miles, a pastor at Christ Community Church in Conway, South Carolina, said he was well treated in custody.
