BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The former fiance of state Superintendent of Public Instruction Kirsten Baesler has resigned from his teaching position with Bismarck Public Schools.
 
     A district spokeswoman says Todd Tschosik submitted his resignation late Thursday, citing personal reasons. The school board will take up the matter Monday.
 
     Tschosik did not immediately respond to an Associated Press request for comment.
 
     Tschosik was placed on administrative leave for two days this week after making a phone call to a radio talk show during work hours, which school officials said was a violation of district policy. Tschosik appeared on a KFGO radio show to present his side of a domestic dispute with Baesler in March.
 
     An assault charge against Baesler was later dismissed. The state’s teacher licensing board took no action against either Baesler or Tschosik.

 MINOT, N.D. (AP) – A Minot woman and her son have pleaded not guilty to felony drug charges.
 
46-year-old Danielle McCrae and 26-year-old Daniel Dufloth were arrested in March with what police said was a large quantity of prescription pills, heroin and cocaine, along with more than $1,000 in cash.
 
     The mother and son are accused of possessing drugs with the intent to deliver them within 1,000 feet of a school. That makes the charges felonies that carry a maximum punishment of life in prison.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Legislature has passed a bill that limits how drones can be used by law enforcement.
 
     The House approved the legislation Thursday. The Senate endorsed it last week. It now heads to Gov. Jack Dalrymple’s desk for his signature.
 
     The measure says information from unmanned aerial vehicles can’t be used as probable cause for a search warrant. And information obtained by drones can’t be used in court unless a warrant is obtained.
 
     The bill also makes it illegal to use drones for private surveillance or for carrying lethal weapons.

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota officials believe a federal study of a large Missouri River water project has adequately addressed fears of environmental harm in the state of Missouri and the Canadian province of Manitoba.
 
     But they’re also resigned to the likely continuation of a drawn-out legal battle that’s already delayed the Northwest Area Water Supply project for more than a decade.
 
     NAWS Project Manager Tim Freije (FREE’-jee) says he’s not optimistic about a quick resolution to a lawsuit by Missouri and Manitoba. And Missouri’s attorney general says he’s committed to protecting the water rights of state residents.
 
     Manitoba officials say they’re still reviewing the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation’s final environmental study of NAWS, which calls for more stringent treatment of Missouri River water before it goes to northwestern North Dakota residents.

In world and national news…

FAIRDALE, Ill. (AP) – Coroners have identified a second person found dead in the northern Illinois community of Fairdale after tornadoes struck the region. Authorities say the body of Jacklyn Klosa was found during a “secondary search” of the damaged homes. About a dozen other people were injured when at least one tornado swept through tiny Fairdale, a farming community about 80 miles from Chicago.
 
     PANAMA CITY (AP) – The White House says a nuclear deal with Iran would require lifting sanctions against Tehran through a phased-in process. That runs counter to the stance taken by Iran’s supreme leader and its president, who say sanctions would have to be lifted immediately after the deal’s implementation. White House deputy national security adviser Benjamin Rhodes says the remarks by the Iranian leaders reflect internal pressures from Iran hardliners, but they don’t mean a final agreement is unattainable.
 
     KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) – A 20-year-old Kansas man has been charged with planning a suicide bomb attack against Fort Riley in an alleged plot to support the Islamic State group. Prosecutors say John Booker of Topeka was arrested today while trying to arm what he thought was a 1,000-pound bomb inside a van near the base. They say the arrest came after an FBI sting investigation. Booker is facing several charges, including attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction. 
 
     WASHINGTON (AP) – A man who’s accused of killing a guard at the Census Bureau headquarters before leading police on a car chase through Maryland and Washington has been charged with armed kidnapping and assault on a police officer. The chase ended with an exchange of gunfire that left the suspect — Ronald Anderson — and an officer wounded. The woman Anderson is accused of kidnapping was found safe. Police say it appears to have been a domestic conflict.
 
     ORANGE, N.J. (AP) – A New Jersey school district has suspended a teacher for asking her third-grade class to write “get well” letters to a sick inmate who was convicted of killing a Philadelphia policeman. School administrators in Orange say they had no knowledge of the assignment given by Marilyn Zuniga. The letters were delivered to Mumia Abu-Jamal (MOO’-mee-ah ah-BOO’ jah-MAHL’). The former Black Panther is serving life in prison for the 1981 murder of Officer Daniel Faulkner. His family said he was hospitalized last month to be treated for complications from diabetes.
