Fox News has accused Donald Trump of making "sexist verbal assaults" against Megyn Kelly, issuing its most aggressive response yet to the Republican frontrunner's repeated attacks on its star anchor.
The sharply worded response came Friday evening after Trump took his attacks against Kelly to a new level, referring to her as "sick" and "overrated." Trump also called for his supporters to boycott her Fox News show.

Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor posted on Facebook Friday that he will support Cruz in Utah, where Romney currently resides. Romney did not use the word "endorsement," and he has personally encouraged Republicans to engage in what is called "strategic voting" in which they cast ballots for the GOP candidate most likely to stop Donald Trump in their respective state.

"This week, in the Utah nominating caucus, I will vote for Senator Ted Cruz," he wrote, saying that no candidate besides Trump can win before a convention -- which Cruz himself disagrees with. "The only path that remains to nominate a Republican rather than Mr. Trump is to have an open convention. At this stage, the only way we can reach an open convention is for Senator Cruz to be successful in as many of the remaining nominating elections as possible."After a four-month search for Europe's most-wanted fugitive, Paris terror attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam was captured Friday, Belgian officials said.

Abdeslam was wounded in a gunbattle with authorities in an anti-terror raid in the Brussels' suburb of Molenbeek. Four other people were arrested.

A man named Monir Ahmed Alaaj -- also known as Amine Choukri -- also was wounded and hospitalized, prosecutors said.A threatening letter addressed to Donald Trump's son Eric Trump contained a suspicious powder in its envelope, a law enforcement source said Friday.

The substance, which was delivered to a New York City Trump building, was tested and appears to be lemonade mix, according to initial reports.

Eric Trump's wife was going through the mail when she picked up the envelope and powder came out, the source said.

Several groups of rabbis and Jewish religious leaders are planning to protest Donald Trump's speech to a major pro-Israel conference in Washington on Monday, accusing the presidential candidate of encouraging hatred.

Trump is scheduled to address the American Israel Public Affairs Committee conference Monday night, and several groups are organizing boycotts of the speech.
