MINOT, N.D. (AP) — One of the two men convicted of killing a Minot couple more than three decades ago has an estimated release date from the North Dakota State Penitentiary.

The Minot Daily News reports Calvin Newman is expected to be released around May 16, 2019. Newman has been behind bars for slaying 66-year-old Cora Abernathy and her 75-year-old husband, Charles Abernathy, at their rural Minot home in February of 1985. The two had been shot in the head and their throats were slashed.

Newman’s accomplice in the murders, Kevin Austin, is serving a life sentence for the crime. Initially Newman refused to testify against Austin, but later changed his mind after sitting in prison with no hope of being released.

Austin finally went on trial in 1993 and was convicted.

 

 

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Fargo’s old city hall is set for demolition in about two weeks.

Officials made the move to a new city hall adjacent to the 60-year-old building last month. City administrator Bruce Grubb tells KFGO radio that remaining furniture and fixtures have been salvaged by several nonprofit organizations, and asbestos removal started last week.

That should wrap up by the end of the month. Demolition of the building should be completed by the end of November. Part of the area eventually will become parking.

The demolition will cost about $376,000, significantly less than the original estimate of $694,000. Grubb attributes that to a competitive bidding process and contractors “hungry for work.”

 

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners is gauging the interest among oil shippers in moving more crude through the Dakota Access pipeline.The $3.8 billion pipeline moves North Dakota oil through South Dakota and Iowa to a shipping point in Illinois. From there it goes to the Gulf Coast.ETP is seeking commitments from shippers to transport additional oil. The proposed expansion would increase the pipeline’s capacity from 500,000 barrels per day to 570,000 barrels.Company spokeswoman Vicki Granado tells The Bismarck Tribune that the expansion would require minimal modifications to the actual pipeline.North Dakota Pipeline Authority Director Justin Kringstad says companies can increase pipeline capacity by adding a chemical to make oil flow more easily, or by adding more pumping power or pumping stations. 

WATFORD CITY, N.D. (AP) — Oasis Midstream Partners has completed a natural gas processing plant that will help reduce the wasteful flaring of excess natural gas in North Dakota’s Bakken oil patch.

The $150 million Oasis Wild Basin II plant near Watford City will add 200 million cubic feet per day of natural gas processing capacity. The first major plant completed in recent years in the Bakken is to begin operating in November.

Oasis began operating the first Wild Basin plant in 2016 to process 80 million cubic feet of gas per day.

“We figured out pretty quickly we were going to fill up that plant pretty fast,” CEO Taylor Reid told The Bismarck Tribune .

Oasis built the new plant to support its own gas production, but it also plans to process gas from other companies. Reid projects the new plant will be full in late 2019 or 2020, depending on the level of contracts from others.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Hurricane Willa has grown rapidly into an “extremely dangerous” near-Category 5 storm in the eastern Pacific, on a path that could potentially bring landfall on a stretch of coast in Mexico between Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta in the coming days. The U.S. National Hurricane Center said early Monday that Willa could “produce life-threatening storm surge, wind and rainfall over portions of southwestern and west-central Mexico beginning on Tuesday.”ISTANBUL (AP) — Newly leaked surveillance footage from the killing of Jamal Khashoggi appears to show a man walking around in the writer’s clothes in Istanbul after his killing.
