The state Department of Health said Monday a woman in her 70s from Williams County with underlying health conditions died from COVID-19. That raises North Dakota\u2019s death toll to 93 since the pandemic began. The Bismarck Tribune reports it\u2019s the first pandemic-related death in Williams County, where cases have doubled in the past week. State officials report the number of people testing positive statewide has risen to 5,126.

Denham told officers he had come to a stop at the stop sign, on 5 Ave SE, at the 10 St SE intersection. Denham stated he did not see any crossing traffic on 10 St SE, so he proceeded northbound on 5 Ave SE, crossing over the 10 St SE intersection.<\/p>\n 57-year-old Frank Stuart Muddiman of Jamestown, ND was driving a 2020 Big Dog Custom motorcycle. Muddiman was traveling westbound, in the outside lane, on 10 St SE, approaching the 5 Ave SE intersection.

(AP) \u2014 Air travel at North Dakota\u2019s eight commercial airports continued to slowly pickup in June after dropping to a historic low in the spring because of the coronavirus pandemic. In April, the state\u2019s airports had about 5,000 passengers, or 5% of normal traffic for their lowest monthly passenger count since record keeping began 40 years ago. The state Aeronautics Commission says the number of passengers rose to about 13,500 in May, and to approximately 24,300 in June. North Dakota has commercial service airports in Bismarck, Minot, Williston, Dickinson, Grand Forks, Fargo, Devils Lake and Jamestown.<\/p>\n FAIRDALE, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A property listing in northern North Dakota has an intriguing advertisement. The 50-acre property near Fairdale in Walsh County is listed as a \u201cunique opportunity to own a bit of Cold War history.\u201d The listing is a former top secret defense missile site that will be auctioned in August. More than 1,200 nuclear weapons were housed across eastern and central North Dakota during the Cold War. Millions of dollars were spent creating the minuteman missile sites in the state. The Fairdale listing says the site features a command bunker and 14 Sprint Missile launch tubes. It includes three parcels surrounded by dual fences that \u201cprovide that extra privacy, security and protection when needed.\u201d<\/p>\n In sports…<\/p>\n Local baseball..<\/p>\n Jamestown Eagles and Aberdeen game called due to rain in the bottom of the 1st<\/sup> with Jamestown up 2-0.<\/p>\n VIRUS AFFECT ON SPORTS…<\/p>\n NFL-<\/p>\n UNDATED (AP) \u2014 NFL players will be tested daily for the coronavirus for at least the first two weeks of training camp per the league\u2019s new testing protocols. The new policy was approved by the NFL and the players\u2019 union.<\/p>\n Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL chief medical officer, said more than one negative test is required before players initially enter the building to begin physical exams or any form of team activity.<\/p>\n After two weeks of daily testing, if the rate of those positive tests falls below 5% among players and Tier I and Tier II individuals, as described in previously NFL protocols, testing would go to every other day. If the rate of positive tests doesn\u2019t fall below that threshold, daily testing would continue until it drops.<\/p>\n The new protocols were announced as rookies for Houston and Kansas City were set to report to camp Monday. Rookies for other teams begin arriving Tuesday.<\/p>\n NFL-CHIEFS<\/p>\n Chiefs won\u2019t take the field for a while<\/p>\n KANSAS CITY (AP) \u2014 The Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs began the intake process for first-year players Monday after the NFL gave them the go-ahead along with the Houston Texans, their opponent in the season opener Sept. 10.<\/p>\n But it could be quite a while before they get on the field for training camp. All players must test negative twice before they are admitted to the facility, then they will spend a couple of days doing the more routine physicals and getting their equipment sorted out.<\/p>\n Veterans are due July 28, and coach Andy Reid said it could be 10 days after that before full practices begin.<\/p>\n NFL-JETS-GIANTS-FANS<\/p>\n No fans at Jets or Giants games<\/p>\n EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) \u2014 The New York Jets and Giants announced they will not have fans at home games this season \u201cuntil further notice\u201d because of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n The teams, who play at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and have separate training facilities in the state, released a joint statement Monday after Gov. Phil Murphy announced an executive order limiting outdoor public gatherings to 500 people.<\/p>\n The Jets and Giants say the decision to not have fans – at least for now – was reached after discussions with Murphy, with the health and safety of fans, players and staff being considered.<\/p>\n The teams also announced that \u201cout of an abundance of caution,\u201d fans will not be able to attend training camp practices this summer.<\/p>\n VIRUS OUTBREAK-MLB-BLUE JAYS<\/p>\n Blue Jays talk to other teams about sharing ballpark<\/p>\n TORONTO (AP) \u2014 The Toronto Blue Jays are talking to the Pittsburgh Pirates about sharing a major league ballpark this season after Canada\u2019s government barred them from playing in their home stadium amid the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n Pirates President Travis Williams confirmed the talks and sounded ready to welcome the Blue Jays. Williams calls it a challenge but says if the Pirates are able to safely accommodate the Blue Jays, it will bring international attention to Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins says the team is focused on getting into a major league facility and has more than five backup plans.<\/p>\n UNDATED (AP) \u2014 The NHL says only two players tested positive for COVID-19 during the first five days of training camp last week.<\/p>\n The league, in consultation with its players, is not revealing the identity of players who test positive, or their teams. The two players who tested positive are self-isolating per national and local health protocols.<\/p>\n A total of 2,618 tests of more than 800 players from July 13-17 were done by the league. Training camps opened July 13, with 24 teams preparing to compete in an expanded playoff format in Toronto and Edmonton, Alberta, starting on Aug. 1.<\/p>\n Teams are scheduled to travel to both hub cities on Sunday.<\/p>\n The NHL reported it had 33 players test positive during the period after the league paused its season in March to the start of camps.<\/p>\n San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler knelt during the national anthem along with several of his players before first pitch of an exhibition game against the Athletics in Oakland. Right fielder Jaylin Davis and first base coach Antoan Richardson also took a knee, with shortstop Brandon Crawford standing between them with a hand on each of their shoulders. Davis held his right hand over his heart and Richardson clasped his hands in front of him.<\/p>\n \u2014 The Atlanta Braves have removed a \u201cChop On\u201d sign that sat near an entrance to Truist Park as the team considers its stance on fans\u2019 tomahawk chop chant. The removal of the wooden sign came as the team changed its slogan from \u201cChop On\u201d to \u201cFor The A\u201d for the 2020 season.<\/p>\n \u2014The Kansas City Royals have placed right-hander Jakob Junis on the injured list to allow him to continue preparing for the season. He missed the first part of summer camp following a positive test for the coronavirus. The Royals said he was cleared about a week ago to return to baseball activities. Junis went 9-14 with a 5.24 ERA in 31 starts last season.<\/p>\n \u2014Major League Baseball has doubled the isolated camera angles available for video review from 12 to 24 and arranged for high-frame rate cameras to stream directly to the new replay operations center and ballpark video rooms. The time each manager has to decide whether to challenge an umpire\u2019s call has been cut from 30 seconds to 20.<\/p>\n \u2014 Major League Baseball is adding on-field advertising this season, both real and virtual. Allowed locations include the back of the pitcher\u2019s mound, behind home plate, on tarps in the stands and in the grass in foul territory down the first-base lines. Teams have the choice whether to make the ads real or project them virtually during telecasts. In addition, physical ads can be put on the on-deck circle.<\/p>\n \u2014 Oakland Athletics left-hander A.J. Puk has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a shoulder strain. He planned to travel to Los Angeles to be examined. The injury also bothered him during spring training. Right-hander Daniel Mengden will move into the rotation in Puk\u2019s place.<\/p>\n In world and national news…<\/p>\n LONDON (AP) \u2014 A long-awaited report on Russian influence in British politics criticized the British government for its slow response to Russian interference in the 2016 Brexit referendum. Its authors said it was \u201castonishing\u201d that no one sought to protect that democratic process. Tuesday’s report from parliament\u2019s Intelligence and Security Committee said it would be \u201cdifficult \u2014 if not impossible \u2014 to prove\u201d allegations that Russia sought to influence the referendum. But it was clear that the government \u201cwas slow to recognize the existence of the threat\u201d even after evidence emerged of Russian interference in the U.S. elections and the 2014 Scottish independence referendum.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BEIJING (AP) \u2014 The U.S. government has imposed trade sanctions on 11 companies it says are implicated in human rights abuses in China\u2019s Muslim northwestern region of Xinjiang. The penalties add to U.S. pressure on Beijing over Xinjiang, where the ruling Communist Party is accused of mass detentions, forced labor and other abuses against Muslim minorities. Xinjiang is among a series of U.S.-Chinese conflicts including human rights, trade and technology that have caused relations to plunge to their lowest level in decades. The Chinese government criticized the sanctions as interference in its affairs but gave no indication whether it might retaliate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BRUSSELS (AP) \u2014 Weary European Union leaders finally clinched an unprecedented $2.1 trillion budget and coronavirus recovery fund early Tuesday. They somehow found unity after four days and as many nights of fighting and wrangling over money and power in one of their longest summits ever. To confront the biggest recession in its history, the EU reached a consenus on a 750 billion euro coronavirus fund to be sent as loans and grants to the countries hit hardest by the virus. That comes on top of the seven-year 1 trillion euro EU budget. At first the grants were to total 500 billion euros, but the figure was lowered to 390 billion euros.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n LUTSK, Ukraine (AP) \u2014 Police say a man has seized a bus and has taken some 20 people hostage in northwestern Ukraine. Officers sealed off the center of Lutsk, a city 400 kilometers (250 miles) west of Kyiv, on Tuesday morning. The assailant is armed and carrying explosives, they said in a Facebook statement. Police officers are trying to get in touch with the man. They have already identified him and said that he expressed frustration with \u201cUkraine\u2019s system\u201d on his social media pages. Ukrainian media report that gunshots can be heard at the scene. It isn\u2019t immediately clear whether anyone has been injured.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says he is putting Russia and other foreign governments \u201con notice\u201d that he will act aggressively as president to counter any interference in U.S. elections. The statement Monday came hours after Democratic leaders issued a new warning that Congress appears to be the target of a foreign interference campaign. Biden says he will treat foreign interference as an \u201can adversarial act that significantly affects the relationship between the United States and the interfering nation\u2019s government.\u201d The new alarms give a renewed urgency to concerns that foreign actors could be trying to influence the vote or sow disinformation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n TOKYO (AP) \u2014 Global shares are up after European leaders worked out a deal to support their virus-stricken economies. Stock markets rose Tuesday in Paris, Frankfurt and London, tracking gains in Asia. U.S. futures also advanced, auguring an upbeat start for Wall Street. The 27 EU leaders agreed to a 1.8 trillion-euro ($2.1 trillion) budget and coronavirus recovery fund after one of their longest summits ever. Investors also were encouraged by news from scientists at Oxford University that their experimental coronavirus vaccine prompted a protective immune response in hundreds of people who got the shot in an early trial.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) \u2014 The actions of federal law enforcement officers at protests in Oregon\u2019s largest city are raising the prospect of a constitutional crisis. It\u2019s one that could escalate as weeks of demonstrations find renewed focus in clashes with federal agents. Protests have wracked Portland for 52 days following George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis. The Trump administration dispatched the officers from federal agencies against the wishes of state and local officials. The state has sued over the agents\u2019 actions. Constitutional law experts call those actions \u201cunprecedented\u201d and a \u201cred flag.\u201d Trump says he plans to send federal agents to other cities, too.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERPRISE, Utah (AP) \u2014 A minor earthquake struck a remote corner of Utah early Tuesday. The U.S. Geological Survey reported that the magnitude 3.7 quake shook the desert at 3:44 a.m. local time. The epicenter was in Utah’s southwest corner, about 14 miles east of Enterprise and 28 miles north of St. George. People also reported feeling it in Hurricane, Utah. University of Utah Seismograph Stations said a total of 6 earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or greater have happened in the same area since since 1962, the largest of which was a magnitude 4.2 temblor in 1981.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CSi Weather… REST OF TODAY.
