FARGO, N.D. (AP) — No one was hurt in a Thanksgiving Day fire at a Fargo apartment building.
Firefighters responded to the blaze shortly before 7 p.m. Residents had already evacuated.
The fire in a second-floor apartment kitchen and laundry area was put out, and fire crews ventilated smoke from the building before allowing residents to return to their homes.
The cause of the fire wasn’t immediately determined.
WEST FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A West Fargo grandmother was arrested Thanksgiving Day for allegedly harboring a runaway.
Police say the 53-year-old woman misled investigators while harboring her grandson’s 13-year-old girlfriend, who had run away from home Tuesday.
The Red River Child Abduction Response Team was activated, but a search became unnecessary Thursday when the grandmother said she would turn over the girl to authorities.
The woman was arrested on charges of giving false information, harboring a runaway and hindering an investigation. Formal charges were pending.
The girl was unharmed.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — An out-of-state moving company that operates under several business names has been banned from operating in North Dakota.
Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem says he has issued a cease-and-desist order against All in the Family Moving and Storage NE Inc., which also does business as Able Moving and Storage and Majestic Movers.
Stenehjem says the company violated North Dakota’s consumer fraud laws, and there are dozens of complaints against the company that also is under federal investigation.
A working telephone number for the company couldn’t immediately be found.
ABERDEEN, S.D. (AP) — Crews cleaning up a large oil pipeline spill in northeastern South Dakota took a little time Thursday for a traditional Thanksgiving meal.
The American News reports an emergency response team brought in by TransCanada Corp. served up turkey, stuffing and pie for the crews.
There are roughly 170 people on-site working on cleanup and remediation around the clock in 12-hour shifts. Thanksgiving meals were served for the day shift and for the overnight crew.
TransCanada spokeswoman Jacquelynn Benson says the meal provided a short break for the workers, which is important on a holiday.
The estimated 210,000-gallon leak on the Keystone Pipeline was discovered last week. TransCanada says it has recovered more than 44,000 gallons of oil from the site. The cause of the leak is still being investigated.
WATERTOWN, S.D. (AP) — Federal authorities say three people have been sentenced for their roles in a blackjack scheme that involved the theft of about $10,000 from a northeast South Dakota casino.
U.S. Attorney Randolph Seiler’s office says 44-year-old Lito Bolocon and 29-year-old Jordon Rondell were sentenced this week to six months in custody and ordered to pay $8,700 in restitution to the Dakota Sioux Casino.
Court records show 43-year-old Jeremy Brown was previously sentenced to two years probation and ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution.
Authorities say Bolocon was a pit boss, Brown a blackjack dealer and Rondell a customer. Officials say they made a plan to cheat the casino out of money on New Year’s Eve 2015.
The Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate operate the casino on the Lake Traverse Indian Reservation, which encompasses portions of both Dakotas.
PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Business groups, federal lawmakers and public officials’ associations have signed on to support South Dakota’s legal bid to collect sales taxes from out-of-state internet retailers.
South Dakota is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review whether retailers can be required to collect sales taxes in states where they lack a physical presence. The case could have national implications for e-commerce.
South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley’s office said this week that organizations ranging from the National Governors Association to the National Retail Federation have filed friend-of-the-court briefs supporting South Dakota’s petition to the high court.
The state is seeking to overturn legal rulings issued mostly before the online shopping boom.
Thirty-six attorneys general from states including Colorado, Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin have also filed a friend-of-the-court brief.

HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwe’s new President Emmerson Mnangagwa has left the stadium after his inauguration. The 75-year-old’s first speech as leader reached out to the nation at large, pledging “democratic” elections next year. He also made friendly gestures toward the international community as he seeks to revive a collapsed economy after years of sanctions and corruption.
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Emmerson Mnangagwa has been inaugurated Friday as Zimbabwe’s new leader, but many are questioning whether he’ll be able to bring the change the country craves. Mnangagwa’s remarkable rise to power came after longtime leader Robert Mugabe fired him as vice president, setting in motion Mugabe’s own downfall.
