Jamestown, ND (KCS-T.V. News Oct 3, 2013) — Jamestown City Forester Doug Wiles says, the City of Jamestown crews will be clearing alleyways, and overhanging tree and shrub branches.
He says, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to maintain trees and shrubbery. When this responsibility is neglected, it becomes the duty of the City to clear overgrowth that threatens public safety. In some cases, the only answer is removal of the tree or shrub. This is a clearance procedure and should not be mistaken for a complete pruning of the tree. If a complete pruning is needed, have your trees pruned by a City licensed local tree service.

 

The City Street Department Crews along with the City Forester will be conducting annual tree branch clearing in the Northeast section of the city beginning October 21, 2013, weather permitting. Once the Northeast is finished Street Dept. Crews will then move to the Southeast section of the city. Tree and shrub branches that are overhanging streets and alleys in these areas will be removed to prevent interference with traffic and City maintenance equipment in accordance with City Ordinances

City of Jamestown residents can find the Municipal Code on line at:

 GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – A North Dakota man suspected of breaking into a Grand Forks apartment and raping and robbing two women at gunpoint has been charged with multiple felonies.
 
     In an affidavit filed in court, 20-year-old Antonio Raheem Matthews, of Grand Forks, was charged with three counts of gross sexual imposition as well as two counts of robbery and felonious restraint. He also is charged with one count of terrorizing.
 
     Grand Forks Police Lt. Jim Remer says  Matthews was already in custody on unrelated warrants when he was arrested Tuesday night in connection with the assault that occurred early Monday.
 
     Matthews’ bail was set at $500,000.

 

 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota farmers and agricultural officials say ideal growing conditions this summer and fall have led to a bumper canola harvest in the area.
 
     Ron Beneda, extension agent in Cavalier County, says  nature could not have written a better script for growing canola this year. North Dakota is the nation’s dominant canola producer, and Cavalier County is a key canola-growing area sometimes known as the canola capital of North Dakota.
 
     Cool temperatures in July helped canola, a cool-season grass. The lack of a September freeze also allowed late-planted canola to mature properly.
 

 

 MINOT, N.D. (AP) – Two separate traffic crashes involving moose have been reported in North Dakota in the past two days.

     On Wednesday, a pickup truck hit a moose on Interstate 94 near Casselton. The driver and a passenger were not seriously injured, but that moose also had to be killed. Authorities say the moose involved in the crash near Casselton could be the same one spotted earlier this week in West Fargo.

 

In world and national news…

WASHINGTON (AP) – Witnesses and officials say a woman driving a car with a young child inside tried to ram through a White House barricade, led police on a chase toward the Capitol, where police shot and killed her. The child was taken from the car to a hospital. Senate Sergeant at Arms Terrence Gainer says he knows of no harm to the child.
 
     Tourists watched the shooting unfold on Constitution Avenue outside the Capitol today as lawmakers inside debated how to end a government shutdown. Police quickly locked down the entire complex temporarily, and both houses of Congress went into recess.
 
     Texas Congressman Michael McCaul, citing a Homeland Security Department briefing, said the woman was killed. Asked if she was armed, he replied: “I don’t think she was. There was no return fire.”
 
     Police described it as an isolated event and saw no indications of terrorism.

 
     WASHINGTON (AP) – A senator is describing the scene outside the U.S. Capitol as shots were fired Thursday afternoon. Democrat Bob Casey of Pennsylvania told reporters he was walking from the Capitol to the Senate Russell Office Building across the street when he noticed several police officers driving fast up Constitution Avenue on motorcycles. Within seconds, he says, he heard “three, four, five pops,” which he assumed were gunshots. He says police ordered him and nearby tourists to crouch behind a car for protection. In about two minutes, he said, the officers moved everyone into the Capitol.
 
     WASHINGTON (AP) – Efforts to end the partial government shutdown are at a standstill. President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner (BAY’-nur) are trading barbs — with Obama saying the only thing keeping the government shut down is Boehner’s refusal to let a funding measure get an up-or-down vote. He says Boehner “doesn’t want to anger the extremists in his party.” Boehner responds by blasting what he says is Obama’s “my-way-or-the-highway approach.” He says if the president would negotiate to fix flaws in his health care law, the shutdown would end. 
 
     SEATTLE (AP) – A man who was drunk when he plowed his pickup into a Seattle family earlier this year, killing two grandparents, has pleaded guilty to charges of vehicular homicide and vehicular assault. Mark Mullan faces a recommended term of 18 years in prison. He’d had five previous drunken driving arrests. The accident that killed the two grandparents badly injured a mother and her newborn son.
 
     NEW YORK (AP) – The wife of the SUV driver who was involved in a confrontation with a throng of motorcyclists in New York City over the weekend says he feared for the life of his family when he drove through the crowd, striking one of the motorcyclists. She says the sympathies of her family go out to the injured rider, who broke both legs and suffered spinal injuries that may leave him paralyzed, but that there was no other option than to flee. Meanwhile, records show that the injured biker was recently arrested in Massachusetts for driving with a revoked license.
