Update….

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A Moorhead, Minnesota police officer is charged with felony aggravated assault after a suspect was injured at Sanford Hospital in Fargo.Thirty-three-year-old Matthew Lambert is accused of striking Jennifer Thomas in the face, causing a broken nose and contusions to her right eye last month. Thomas was arrested by Moorhead police Sept. 9 after they received calls of a suicidal woman with a handgun at Buffalo Wild Wings.Court documents say Lambert took Thomas to Sanford Hospital. Lambert told Fargo officers he tackled Thomas after she spit in his face and she struck her head on the bed. A complaint says investigators later determined Lambert struck Thomas in the face while she was handcuffed.Moorhead City Manager Christina Volkers said in a statement Friday that Lambert is on paid leave while the city considers the appropriate course of action.

 

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A Native American voting rights group says it plans to ensure that all Native Americans in North Dakota can vote in November despite a voter identification requirement that many see as a hurdle.

The Bismarck Tribune reports that Four Directions is working with North Dakota tribal governments to help place an official at every reservation polling place. The tribal official can help eligible voters who lack the required identification.

North Dakota now mandates that voters provide an ID with a street address, but many living on reservations have P.O. boxes as their residential address. The U.S. Supreme Court recently rejected an emergency appeal challenging the state’s voter ID law.

The group says tribal officials can issue a tribal voting letter with the voter’s name, date of birth and residential address.

 

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A North Dakota board that regulates private investigators and security firms is dipping into financial reserves and delaying payment of some legal bills after an expensive battle with a company that handled security for the heavily protested Dakota Access oil pipeline.

The Private Investigative and Security Board acknowledges it has spent an unusual amount of money in its battle with North Carolina-based TigerSwan, but says its financial woes are short-term and won’t affect daily functions or its long-term future.

The board has spent $54,000 on attorney fees and other costs since June 2017 — about half of its budgeted income for 2017 and for 2018 — pursuing sanctions against TigerSwan for allegedly operating without a license in the state, according to records The Associated Press obtained through an open records request.

The board’s difficulty is important because the governor-appointed group is mandated by state law with regulating the industry, which currently includes 79 security and private investigation firms and more than 1,300 people. The board relies on fees and receives no taxpayer money.

Because of that, the Legislature is not likely to become involved in the board’s financial matters, according to Sen. Jerry Klein, R-Fessenden, chairman of the Legislative Audit and Fiscal Review Committee, which reviewed the board’s most recent audit.

“If they followed the law there’s nothing we could be alarmed about,” he said, adding that he had no opinion on whether the amount the board spent was excessive. “Generally, we don’t meddle.”

A state judge dismissed the board’s case earlier this year, saying a ban was moot because TigerSwan was no longer present in the state and any decision on possible fines was the board’s to decide.

In world and national news…

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign was defined by his fiery immigration rhetoric. Now with weeks to go before the midterm elections, he is returning to the hot-button issue as he looks to stave off Democratic gains in Congress.

 

TECUN UMAN, Guatemala (AP) — Migrants in a caravan traveling through Central America have broken down gates at a border crossing and are streaming toward a bridge to Mexico. After arriving at the tall, yellow metal fence Friday, some clambered atop it and on U.S.-donated military jeeps. Young men began violently tugging on the barrier and finally succeeded in tearing it down.

 

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — If it seems like lottery jackpots are getting larger and larger, it’s because they are. Friday night’s Mega Millions estimated grand prize is now $1 billion, continuing a trend of giant jackpots. It’s currently the second-largest lottery prize in U.S. history and joins five other top 10 drawings in the last three years. The monster jackpots are the result of changes in recent years made by lottery officials to lessen the chances of winning the grand prize.

 

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey’s state-run Anadolu news agency says prosecutors are questioning a number of employees of the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul over the disappearance of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Private A Haber TV said as many as 15 employees were being questioned on Friday.

 

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Pennsylvania is not the only state where federal prosecutors are investigating clergy abuse in the Roman Catholic Church. An investigation of the Buffalo Diocese in New York state, begun months before the Pennsylvania probe, has also come to light. The diocese confirmed late Thursday it received a subpoena from federal prosecutors in Buffalo. It said it reached an agreement to produce material months ago and has heard nothing of it since June. There is no evidence the two probes are related.
