GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Grand Forks police have arrested two suspects and are looking for a third in connection with a string of home burglaries.

Authorities say they have investigated several daytime residential burglaries in the past week in which thieves gained entry by breaking through glass patio doors.

Police on Tuesday arrested a 16-year-old boy and a 23-year-old man. An arrest warrant was being obtained for another male juvenile suspect.

Authorities say they also recovered some of the stolen property.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Police in Bismarck are looking for a suspect in an aggravated assault incident at a mobile home that resulted in five people being hospitalized.

Bismarck Police Sgt. Mark Buschena says the suspect on Wednesday assaulted two adults and three juveniles. Buschena says the male suspect used a baseball bat to hit at least one person.

Two of the victims are in the intensive care unit at a local hospital; one of them suffered a head injury.

Buschena says the suspect is the ex-boyfriend of one of the victims, who lives in the mobile home where the incident occurred.

The suspect is described as a 57-year-old Native American man, approximately 5 foot 8 inches tall with brown eyes and black hair.

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Fargo police say one man was arrested in a drug bust that netted 11 pounds of marijuana and $8,000 in cash.

36-year-old Fokholine Meas (fohk-uh-LEEN mees) is charged with possession with intent to sell marijuana, possession of narcotics and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was arrested Wednesday morning in a south Fargo apartment.

Court documents do not list an attorney for Meas.

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – An ongoing spat between North Dakota and Minnesota real estate companies with similar names and signage has wound up in federal court.

The dispute involves The Real Estate Company Inc., of Dickinson, North Dakota, and The Real Estate Company of Detroit Lakes Inc., of Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.

The controversy began when the Detroit Lakes company asked permission to allow one of its agents to work under the name in the Fargo area. The Dickinson company rejected the request and further demanded that its counterpart change its logo.

The lawsuit accuses the Detroit Lakes company of trademark infringement, unfair competition and breach of contract. The Detroit Lakes company says the plaintiffs have no basis for their complaint and the suit should be thrown out.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The state’s top oil regulator has reduced to $20,000 an original $800,000 fine against a company linked to the illegal dumping of radioactive oil waste in rural North Dakota.

Department of Natural Resource Director Lynn Helms has signed the agreement with Zenith Produced Water LLC. The operator has been linked to the dumping of oil filter socks in an abandoned gas station found in February in Noonan.

Helms didn’t immediately return calls for comment Wednesday from the Associated Press. It’s unclear why the fine was drastically reduced.

Oil filter socks are tubular nets that strain liquids during the oil production process.

U.S. Attorney Tim Purdon says there is still an open federal investigation into the incident that involves his office, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Justice.

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Department of Emergency Services is hiring an emergency preparedness firm to analyze the state’s ability to confront oil incidents.

Witt O’Briens, LLC will prepare a report examining North Dakota’s readiness to deal with oil incidents and making recommendations for improvements. The company will look at the state’s ability to prevent and respond to oil incidents involving rail, roadways, pipelines and water.

The report will also present recommendations on regulations.

The Department of Emergency Services says the report will take about eight months to complete and will cost $350,000.

In less than 14 months, North Dakota has seen a one million gallon saltwater spill, an 840,000 gallon oil spill and a fiery train derailment.

In world and national news…

CLEVELAND (AP) – Cleveland police say two officers told a 12-year-old boy with a pellet gun to show his hands three times before he was shot to death. Authorities Wednesday also released video and audio evidence from the shooting. And they’ve identified the officers involved. One joined the force this year, and the other is a six-year veteran of the department.  Police emphasize that the video is being released as the boy’s family wished, and it was not an effort to “exonerate” or condemn anyone.

MINEOLA, N.Y. (AP) – Airlines have canceled more than 10 percent of their flights in Philadelphia, and at Newark and LaGuardia in the New York area. Rain and snow are plaguing pre-Thanksgiving travelers along much of the East Coast. Forecasters don’t expect much snow to accumulate on the streets of major cities.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration is announcing steps to cut levels of smog-forming pollution linked to asthma, lung damage and other health problems. The Environmental Protection Agency is calling for a new, lower threshold for ozone pollution of 65 to 70 parts per billion. That’s down from the current standard of 75 parts per billion, put in place by President George W. Bush in 2008. But the EPA is leaving open the possibility it could enact an even lower standard of 60 parts per billion sought by environmental groups.

JERUSALEM (AP) – Israel’s prime minister wants to revoke residency rights and social benefits for people who commit politically motivated violence and those who support them. His proposal appears to be aimed at Palestinians in east Jerusalem. They’ve carried out a number of deadly attacks in recent weeks. Arab residents of east Jerusalem are not Israeli citizens, but hold residency rights that grant them governmental health and other social benefits.

MADRID (AP) – A Spanish judge has ruled health authorities didn’t commit a crime when they euthanized Excalibur, a dog that belonged to a nursing assistant who contracted Ebola last month. An animal rights group had filed a complaint against a Madrid health official, citing a violation of an animal protection law.  Excalibur belonged to Teresa Romero, the first known person to contract Ebola outside West Africa in the latest outbreak. She had treated two Spanish missionaries who died from Ebola after they were flown back from West Africa. Romero later recovered.
