It was determined the 1994 GMC Sierra pickup, which had been stopped by the Jamestown Police Department hours earlier, was the vehicle stolen overnight, but had not been reported missing until after the business opened.<\/p>\n At approximately 8:18-a.m., a Jamestown resident who owns a 1987 Ford pickup reported his vehicle was stolen overnight from his residence in Jamestown and had already been located by an acquaintance in Kensal, ND, who notified him of his vehicle\u2019s location. The Jamestown Police Department requested assistance from the Stutsman County Sheriff\u2019s Office, to conduct a joint investigation, since the stolen vehicle from Jamestown was abandoned in Kensal, ND and the stolen vehicle from Kensal, ND was recovered in Jamestown.<\/p>\n The investigation by both departments determined the vehicle stolen from Jamestown overnight was taken to Kensal, ND, where it was left abandoned at the same business which then had their vehicle stolen. Based on the information learned during the investigation, it is alleged the same individual stole both vehicles, which are now currently being returned to their owners.<\/p>\n Michael Jay Grager has been arrested on 2 additional charges of suspicion of theft of motor vehicles. He remains in the Stutsman County Correctional Center, awaiting formal charges.<\/p>\n The investigation into this incident continues.

(AP) \u2014 An education campaign aimed at persuading North Dakotans to wear masks and practice social distancing still has not begun more than a month after $1.8 million in federal coronavirus aid was approved for the effort. The campaign had been set to start Monday, the same day North Dakota set a record for active COVID-19 cases statewide. A Health Department spokeswoman said three of the 10 private firms that submitted bids for education effort had equal proposals under the state\u2019s scoring system, which has delayed the effort for at least another week.<\/p>\n From what began with a single building and some 50 employees in 1970, Collins Aerospace\u2019s Jamestown operations have grown to include a complex of manufacturing and office facilities that employ more than 400 workers\u2014making the company the largest private employer in town and one of the largest in the state. In addition to its headquarters in Jamestown, Collins Aerospace\u2019s Cargo Systems business also maintains an engineering and manufacturing center in Bengaluru, India, to support the design and manufacture of many of its products.<\/p>\n Originally an office of the Western Gear Corporation, the Jamestown facility has been part of several different companies since its establishment, ultimately becoming part of Collins Aerospace in 2018. Over the course of its history, the site has produced a number of key systems for military and commercial aircraft, from weapons rails for the Grumman F-14 Tomcat to the cargo system for the Boeing 747. Today, the business continues to provide innovative solutions for the U.S. military, such as its COOLS (Cargo On-Off Loading System) for the Boeing CH-47 Chinook helicopter, and it remains a leading supplier of powered cargo systems for wide-body aircraft, like the Boeing 777.<\/p>\n Wayne Jones, general manager, Cargo Systems, at Collins Aerospace, says, \u201cOur Cargo Systems business couldn\u2019t be happier to call Jamestown home and to celebrate 50 years in this community,\u201d said\u00a0 \u201cOur heritage was built on our ability to provide technologically advanced solutions for our military and commercial customers, and we look forward to continuing that tradition in the years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n Governor Doug Brugm adds, \u201cFrom Carl Ben Eielson\u2019s historic flight across the Arctic Ocean in 1928 to today\u2019s cutting-edge Grand Sky UAS park, North Dakota has a rich heritage of aviation and aerospace, and we\u2019re deeply grateful to Collins Aerospace for its significant contribution and continuing role in that tradition. As a major employer, technology innovator and good corporate citizen in North Dakota for half a century, Collins Aerospace\u2019s Cargo Systems business continues to substantially benefit the economy and workforce of the Jamestown region and our entire state. Congratulations to Collins Aerospace on this milestone anniversary, and thank you for continuing to call North Dakota home!\u201d<\/p>\n Senator John Hoeven says, The Cargo Systems business at Collins Aerospace is one of the state\u2019s largest private employers and a staple in the Jamestown community.\u00a0 Technology continues to serve as the third wave in North Dakota\u2019s economic growth and year after year, the site has produced a number of key systems for aircrafts worldwide. The past five decades have brought innovative advancements and have laid a strong foundation to steward the company for many generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n About Collins Aerospace About Raytheon Technologies On Wednesday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, JSDC Business Development Director, Corry Shevlin said the Stutsman County Commission has also announced their support of the project, and the City of Jamestown will also be asked for a letter to forward.<\/p>\n Glass Investments Projects Inc. to develop, construct and operate a large-scale commercial greenhouse that could employ approximently100 full-time positions.
