FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A 14-year-old Fargo high school student accused of posting a school shooting threat on social media has been taken to juvenile detention.
Superintendent Jeff Schatz says that police and school administrators saw the threat Wednesday night. He says officials determined the threat wasn’t valid.
Schatz says Fargo South High School is running normally, Thursday and that a message was sent Thursday to parents about the situation.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota’s Health and Agriculture Departments have withdrawn blue-green algae advisories for Cottonwood Lake and Harvey Reservoir.
Authorities said Thursday that the warnings were issued because of high levels of microcystin, a cyanotoxin toxin caused by blue-green algae. The Health Department has been monitoring each lake, and results from samples this week show lower toxin concentrations.
Hot summer weather can contribute to the production of the algae that’s also known as cyanobacteria. People and animals who ingest affected water can get sick and even die. There’s no known antidote for the toxins.
People are urged to err on the side of caution and avoid water that looks discolored or scummy or has a foul odor.
WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) — Recent budget cuts to career and technical education programs have some people in North Dakota’s oil patch worried about a potential shortage of skilled workers when the oil industry ramps up.
The state’s economic downturn, partially caused by plummeting oil prices, caused shortfalls in tax revenue. As a result, Gov. Jack Dalrymple ordered budget cuts that are affecting higher education institutions in the state.
Rick Ross is executive director of the North Dakota Association for Career and Technical Education. He says the state still has 10,000 unfilled jobs and 70 percent of them require trade skills.
John Miller is acting president of Williston State College. He says energy and agriculture are North Dakota’s “tradition” and people “need to remain employable regardless of the state’s economy.”
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — The University of North Dakota has launched an investigation after a photo with a racist caption was posted on social media.
The photo, captured on the popular mobile app Snapchat, shows three white students and the caption “Locked that black (expletive) out.”
University spokesman Peter Johnson confirmed to the Minneapolis Star Tribune that the individuals involved are students.
University police and the school’s Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities are investigating after the police department received a harassment complaint Tuesday.
UND president Mark Kennedy Kennedy in a statement posted on Instagram described the caption as an “abhorrent message.” He says he is “shocked” that anyone could consider the incident “a joke.”
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — The city of Bismarck has awarded more than $20 million in contracts for the first phase of Bismarck Airport’s runway project.
Bismarck City Commission named Strata Corp. of Grand Forks the general contractor with a $19.37 million bid. Edling Electric was awarded the electrical contract for more than $781,000.
Airport manager Greg Haug says the city has budgeted $24.3 million in 2017 for the first part of the three-phase project.
He estimates the construction will start in May and finish in November as 2,200 feet of the south end of the main runway will be resurfaced.
Haug says this phase will be complicated because some airport operations will have to move.
The second phase is scheduled to be done from spring to late fall 2018.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Crews in several Minnesota communities are doing what they can to prevent flooding, after five to seven inches of rain overnight. They’ve been filling sandbags in the southern Minnesota town of St. Clair, where a rising river threatens wastewater treatment facilities and several homes. Officials in Fairbault (FEHR’-boh) have declared a state of emergency as they try to hold back the Cannon and Straight Rivers. Nearby Northfield is also bracing for flooding.

In world and national news…
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Yahoo says the personal information in 500 million accounts was stolen in a massive security breakdown. The breach disclosed Thursday, the latest setback for the beleaguered internet company, dates back to late 2014.
The stolen data includes users’ names, email addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth, hashed passwords and security questions for verifying an accountholder’s identity. Yahoo is blaming the hack on a “state-sponsored actor.”

Yahoo is recommending that users change their passwords if they haven’t done so since 2014.
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Even as he urges racial unity, Donald Trump is calling for one of America’s largest cities to adopt police tactics that have been condemned as racial profiling. Speaking at an energy conference in Pittsburgh today, Trump said “law-abiding African-Americans” will suffer the most from unrest like the violent protests that have taken place over the last two nights in Charlotte, North Carolina, following the police shooting death of a black man. He also suggested that drugs are a “very, very big factor” in those protests. Trump earlier Thursday told Fox News that Chicago should use that “stop and frisk” police tactic that a federal judge has said was used unconstitutionally in New York.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Congressional Black Caucus is demanding that Attorney General Loretta Lynch authorize federal intervention into the police killings of unarmed African-American men and women. The action comes in the aftermath of the killing in Charlotte, North Carolina, of Keith Scott. Police say he refused repeated commands to drop a gun, but residents say he was unarmed. The letter asks for state and federal investigations, indictments and prosecutions of police officers whose actions harm or kill unarmed African-Americans.
NEW YORK (AP) — Do you think the news media has been too easy on Donald Trump? More than a quarter of the people in a new survey would agree with you. The Pew Research Center says more people feel that way than felt the same about the coverage for republicans Mitt Romney and John McCain the last two elections. The increase is primarily driven by Democrats. Twice as many Democrats feel the media has gone soft for Trump as felt that way about McCain. Meanwhile, 33 percent of people said the media has been too easy on Hillary Clinton. That percentage is roughly on par with what people thought about coverage of President Barack Obama the last two elections.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Department of Homeland Security says it’s boosting its efforts to deport Haitians. It’s a response to thousands of immigrants from the Caribbean nation who have overwhelmed California border crossings with Mexico in recent months. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Sarah Saldana told lawmakers today that she’s heard from other governments that 40,000 Haitians are on their way. She called it an “emergency situation” on California’s border.
