UK leader congratulates royals on birth of son

LONDON (AP) - British Prime Minister Theresa May has offered "warmest congratulations" to Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge on the birth of their new son.
May says that "I wish them great happiness for the future."
The couple's Kensington Palace office says Kate gave birth at 11:01 a.m. to a boy weighing eight pounds, seven ounces (3.8 kilograms). The baby is the couple's third child and is fifth in line to the throne.
The news brought cheers from dedicated royal-watchers outside London's St. Mary's Hospital, where a self-appointed town crier proclaimed the birth.
The words "it's a boy" were flashed in lights around the top of London's BT Tower, which can be seen for miles around.
