Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown Rescue Squad and Jamestown Rural Fire Department were called to Highway 20 six miles north of Jamestown at 10:24-a.m., Tuesday, to a tanker rollover, which punctured the tank and was leaking fuel.
The tanker driver was removed from the vehicle, no official confirmation of that person’s condition was immediately available.
The highway was open to one lane southbound until the roadway is cleaned up and the vehicle removed, and is posted.
The rural fire fighters were on scene, and reports say the diesel spill was contained in a 100 foot area in the east ditch of the highway, and that Central Valley Health was being contacted concerning the hazardous waste.
The one unit cab/tanker was being up-righted for removal late Tuesday morning.
The spilled fuel cleanup is being handled by a contractor, expected to occur on Tuesday.
Jamestown City Fire Department Lt. Sheldon Mohr says the rescue squad with two units and nine personnel was on the scene about an hour and ten minutes.
Also responding to the scene was the Stutsman County Sheriff’s Office, the North Dakota Highway Patrol, and Jamestown Are Ambulance Service.

Update…
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The gunman in a deadly Wal-Mart shooting in Grand Forks, North Dakota, has been identified as an airman from nearby Grand Forks Air Force Base.
Police say 21-year-old Marcell Willis walked into the store shortly after 1 a.m. Tuesday and shot two employees with a handgun, killing one and injuring the other. Authorities say Willis tried to shoot another worker but missed, then killed himself.
Police say the shooting appears to have been random. They haven’t found a link between Willis and the Wal-Mart store or the employees.
Authorities did not immediately identify the two workers who were shot. The injured person was taken to Altru Hospital in Grand Forks.
Police said they won’t release victims names until Wednesday, pending full family notification.
Bismarck (CSi) The North Dakota Forest Service has recognized Valley City as one of 51 towns in the state that received the Tree City USA award this spring.
Valley City Commissioner, and member of Valley City’s Image and Beautification Committee, Dr. Madeline Luke, accepted the award, with a ceremony held at the State Capitol in Bismarck earlier this month.
The Tree City USA program is a national program that provides the framework for community forestry management for cities and towns across America. The communities that achieve this status meet four core standards of sound urban forestry management: maintaining a tree board or department, having a community tree ordinance, spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry and celebrating Arbor Day.
If interested in planting and caring for trees in Valley City and joining the Valley City Image and Beautification Committee, call Dr. Luke at 845-5407.
BURLINGTON, N.D. (AP) – Donors from around the country and a local fisherman have come to the aid of a Burlington church that was targeted by thieves.
The break-in at Peace Lutheran was part of a rash of church burglaries in the region around Easter last month. The thieves took Peace Lutheran’s safe.
Among the missing items were church records and $300 that children had spent weeks collecting to pay for mosquito bed nets that can help prevent people in tropical climates from getting malaria.
Pastor Emily Nesdahl says officials put out a call via social media, and people around the country donated more than $2,100.
A few days after Easter, a fisherman found the church records floating in the Souris River, still intact.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota State Treasurer Kelly Schmidt says high school students will have a new tool to help them learn about credit cards, student loans, savings and taxes.
Schmidt is slated to travel across the state next week to launch the computerized financial literacy program.
The program was developed by EverFi, an educational technology company.
Schmidt says her office will partner with local businesses and financial institutions to bring the program to local students at no cost to schools or taxpayers.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Grand Forks police have confirmed that two people have died in a shooting in a Grand Forks Wal-Mart store.
Officers responded to reports of gunshots shortly after 1 a.m. Tuesday. Deputy Police Chief Mike Ferguson says officers discovered “multiple victims” inside the store, and that several of them were taken to a hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries.
Police did not immediately release any details on the shooter but did say that they do not believe there is any further risk to the general public.
The names of the two people who died were not immediately released.
In world and national news…
WIMBERLEY, Texas (AP) – A county official in Texas says 30 people are unaccounted for after the significant flooding along the Blanco River southwest of Austin. But some of those people may be staying elsewhere. Among the missing is a group of people whose vacation home was swept down the rain-swollen river and into a bridge. And much of Houston was left underwater by the 11 more inches of rain that fell overnight.
CLEVELAND (AP) – Cleveland is agreeing to overhaul its police department under the supervision of a federal monitor. It’s part of a settlement with the U.S. Justice Department over a pattern of excessive force and other abuses by officers. The settlement comes three days after a white patrolman was acquitted of voluntary manslaughter charges in the shooting deaths of two unarmed black suspects in a barrage of police gunfire. The case helped prompt an 18-month investigation by the Justice Department.
NEW YORK (AP) – President Barack Obama’s executive action that could protect millions of immigrants from deportation will remain on hold. A federal appeals court Tuesday refused to lift a temporary hold on the president’s action. The Justice Department had asked the court to reverse a decision from a Texas judge that temporarily blocked the president’s plan. Twenty-six states sued, saying Obama’s action is unconstitutional.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The United States has begun military surveillance flights to help locate stranded Rohingya (ROH’-hin-GAH’) and Bangladeshi boat people in Southeast Asian seas. A State Department spokesman says the U.S. has offered to help governments in the region by providing information about boats possibly carrying migrants in the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal. This month, more than 3,000 migrants have landed in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand, and thousands more are believed to be trapped at sea in boats abandoned by their captains.
NEW YORK (AP) – Which U.S. business executives make the most money? A study finds that six of the ten highest-paid CEOs at American companies last year worked in the media industry. They include the head of Discovery Communications, David Zaslav, whose total compensation more than quadrupled to $156 million after he extended his contract. Les Moonves of CBS held onto second place, with a pay package totaling more than $54 million.
