STANLEY, N.D. (AP) – Authorities say three men have been killed in fiery crash three miles east of Stanley involving a tanker trailer loaded with crude oil and five other vehicles.
The North Dakota Highway Patrol says the tanker trailer exploded and the vehicles burned for about five hours at the crash site on U.S. Highway 2.
A 26-year-old pickup truck driver from Wahpeton, a 23-year-old male passenger in that truck and a 41-year-old Minot man who was driving a second pickup truck were killed. Their names were not released.
The drivers of the rig pulling the tanker, a third pickup and a vac truck were injured.
The patrol says heavy fog greatly reducing visibility in the area was a major contributor to the crash.
FORT TOTTEN, N.D. (AP) – Federal authorities have charged a woman in the death of a toddler on the Spirit Lake Reservation in North Dakota.
U.S. Attorney Timothy Purdon says 31-year-old Hope Tomahawk Whiteshield, of St. Michael, is charged with child abuse and neglect. She has a detention hearing scheduled Monday.
Defense attorney Ted Sandberg did not immediately respond to a request for comment before business hours Friday.
Whiteshield is charged in the June 12 or June 13 death of a girl who was a month shy of 3 years old. FBI Special Agent Michael Meyer says in an affidavit that Whiteshield is married to the child’s grandfather.
Whiteshield is accused of throwing the girl down an embankment by the family’s home. Authorities say an autopsy concluded that the girl died of a head injury.
HETTINGER, N.D. (AP) – A man facing multiple felonies including attempted murder in a Hettinger case has pleaded guilty to a pair of lesser charges and will not see more jail time.
Kevin Gardner was accused of putting a loaded gun to a woman’s head last November and pulling the trigger. The gun did not fire.
Gardner this week pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and menacing counts. Prosecutors dropped felony counts of attempted murder, reckless endangerment and terrorizing.
Gardner was given credit for time served and put on supervised probation for one year.
Gardner initially was listed as a Dickinson resident, but the most recent court records say he is from Missouri.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Backers of petitions seeking to give voters an opportunity to repeal three of North Dakota’s strict new abortion laws say they are falling short of their signature goals.
Each of the three petitions needs at least 13,452 valid signatures from North Dakota voters to qualify for a statewide vote.
Committee chairman Gary Hangsleben of Grand Forks says each of the petitions is at least 2,000 signatures short and it’s doubtful that they’ll be gathered by the midnight Monday deadline.
Hangsleben says he’s opposed to abortion but wants to give North Dakota residents a chance to vote on the new laws that would make the state the most restrictive in the nation in which to get the procedure.
North Dakota abortion rights groups have not supported the petitions.
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) – The federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., has ruled that a South Dakota-based rural telecom cannot charge access fees to long-distance carriers when servicing calls to large-volume businesses.
Northern Valley Communications challenged an FCC ruling on the practice known as “traffic pumping.”
Small rural carriers are allowed to charge access fees to long-distance companies any time the rural company serviced a call from long-distance companies. But regulators at the FCC grew increasingly concerned as the rural carriers teamed up with high-volume businesses, including adult entertainment lines, conference call services or chat lines.
Northern Valley CEO James Groft says the decision won’t affect the rural carrier’s business as it has been operating in accordance with the FCC ruling for the past three years.
In world and national news…
WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama has named James Comey to be the new FBI director. Comey was the No. 2 Justice Department official under George W. Bush. Obama says Comey is a model of “fierce independence and deep integrity.” Comey gained attention for blocking efforts by the Bush White House to reauthorize a no-warrant wiretapping program in 2004. If confirmed by the Senate, he would replace Robert Mueller (MUHL’-ur) and serve a 10-year tenure.
WASHINGTON (AP) – An agreement to vastly increase fencing, patrols and high-tech monitoring along the U.S.-Mexico border has been formally unveiled in the Senate. The measure backed by Democrats and Republicans is an amendment to a sweeping immigration bill that, with the amendment, now looks headed for passage next week with substantial bipartisan support. The amendment would double Border Patrol agents, add hundreds of miles of fencing, and spend billions on everything from helicopters to drones to watchtowers.
GREENVILLE, N.C. (AP) – Police in Greenville, N.C., say a man with a shotgun wounded one person at a law firm before crossing a busy street and entering a Wal-Mart, where he shot three more people before officers subdued him. The conditions and identities of the shooting victims weren’t released.
SOUTH FORK, Colo. (AP) – Firefighters aren’t holding out much hope of saving the Colorado tourist town of South Fork. A massive wildfire is headed toward the community in the state’s southwestern mountains, which has about 400 full-time residents. They’ve been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the firefighting effort says the hot, dry and windy weather — along with large stands of dead trees — are causing the fire to burn actively for a longer period each day than most fires burn.
LOS ANGELES (AP) – Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have taken a new direction in naming their baby girl. They’re calling her North – as in North West. The Los Angeles County birth certificate says little North was born to the celebrity and her rapper boyfriend at 5:34 a.m. Saturday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
