FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Authorities say a Cass County Jail inmate who became unresponsive in her cell is recovering after staff performed CPR and administered several doses of the drug overdose reversal medication Narcan. The incident was reported about 1:45 p.m. Friday, when a deputy was alerted by an inmate that a fellow inmate appeared to be sick. The deputy began talking to the woman when she passed out. She eventually regained consciousness after deputies and nurses at the Fargo jail applied lifesaving measures, including Narcan. She was taken to a local hospital, medically evaluated and discharged that same day. No further details have been released.
MINOT, N.D. (AP) — The city of Minot is marking the 10th anniversary of a historic flood disaster in the Souris River Valley. U.S. Sen. John Hoeven on Saturday helped dedicate two phases that have been completed on the Minot region’s flood protection project. They include nearly 9,000 feet of earthen levees, 1,600 feet of stream bank stabilization and two pumping stations. The June 2011 Souris River flood was caused by heavy spring snowmelt and rains. It damaged or destroyed thousands of buildings in Minot and prompted the evacuation of more than 11,000 people. It caused an estimated $1 billion in damage.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — The July 31 end of a federal moratorium on evictions has raised concerns that thousands of North Dakota residents who are behind on their rent could lose their homes. The state has set aside $352 million to help with outstanding rent, utility payments and other expenses. But the head of a group that provides legal advice to low-income residents says it’s not enough to prevent future evictions. The number of eviction judgments in North Dakota increased by 15% every year from 2016 through 2019. But last year, that figure dropped, due in part to the federal evictions moratorium and rent assistance.

In world and national news…
SURFSIDE, Fla. (AP) — Rescue workers are still holding out hope they will find survivors as they head into a fifth day of digging through the rubble of a partially collapsed condo building outside Miami. The death toll stood at nine Monday. But more than 150 people remain missing in Surfside. Families of the missing rode buses on Sunday to a site nearby from which they watched rescuers work. Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Nachman Shai led a humanitarian delegation that included several Israeli experts in search-and-rescue operations. He said the experts have told him of cases where survivors were found after 100 hours or more.
BEIJING (AP) — Global stock markets are lower after Wall Street hit a new high as investors looked ahead to manufacturing indicators from Japan, China and South Korea. London and Frankfurt opened lower. Shanghai, Tokyo and Hong Kong fell. Investors have been encouraged by progress in Washington on an infrastructure spending plan. Markets have recovered from the Federal Reserve’s announcement that it might start raising interest rates sooner than expected. Markets have swung between optimism about economic recovery supported by the rollout of coronavirus vaccines and unease that the Fed and other central banks might feel pressure to pull back stimulus to cool rising inflation.
CHICAGO (AP) — Two separate shootings have left one person dead and at least 13 others injured Sunday night in Chicago. News outlets report a woman died, and four men and a teenager were wounded when an SUV drove by and shots were fired in the South Shore area just before 9 p.m. A separate shooting about two hours later in the Marquette Park area wounded eight people. A vehicle collision was also reported nearby and fire officials say two people were injured in that crash. It was not immediately clear how the shooting and the crash may be related. No suspects or arrests were immediately announced in either shooting.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Democrats are trying to alter the state’s recall laws for the second time in four years as Gov. Gavin Newsom prepares to face voters. Lawmakers are expected to vote Monday on a proposal aimed at speeding up the recall process by bypassing a 30-day legislative review of election costs. They say it’s not necessary because they will approve $215 million for counties to run the election. Many Democrats believe Newsom will benefit from an election held in September rather than later in the fall. This follows Democrats’ changing the laws to lengthen the recall process in 2017 in an effort to save a state senator.
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican authorities say eight more suspects have been arrested for alleged involvement in gun attacks earlier this month that killed 19 people in the northern Mexico border city of Reynosa, nearly all of whom appeared to be innocent bystanders. The arrests brought to 13 the number of people detained over the June 19 attacks that left four gunmen and 15 civilians dead. One alleged gunman was detained after being wounded during the shootings, and four others were arrested at midweek. The Tamaulipas state security agency said Sunday that the eight latest arrests included a Gulf Cartel leader identified as Iván Alejandro “N” or Jorge Iván “N,” alias “La Vaca.” Prosecutors have said the attackers sought to terrorize the population as part of a campaign to take control of Reynosa.
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran says it hasn’t yet made a decision about whether to extend an agreement with the U.N. atomic watchdog over access to surveillance footage at its nuclear sites. The remarks by the spokesman of the Foreign Ministry on Monday come after a three-month deal between Tehran and international nuclear inspectors to preserve video data at the country’s atomic installations expired last week, following a one-month extension. Iran began limiting the access to inspectors from the U.N. atomic watchdog to its nuclear sites earlier this year. It’s part of a pressure campaign on the West over Iran’s tattered 2015 nuclear deal with world powers.
