Valley City (CSi) Valley City officials have approved the language in a petition that allows a sponsoring committee to gather signatures to disband the Valley City Police Department.
City Auditor Avis Richter says the sponsoring committee needs to gather 465 valid signatures from Valley City residents before the proposed initiated city ordinance petition can be presented to the city commission for their approval to set up a citywide vote.
If the petition signatures are certified and approved by the City Commission, Valley City residents would vote to approve, or turn down, establishing a city Ordinance to revert the responsibilities of the Valley City Police Department to the Barnes County Sheriff.
The petition sponsoring committee includes Tony Drake, Lloyd Nelson and Bob Drake,
The city stopped its search for a new police chief due to the unknown outcome of this proposed petition.
Police Chief Fred Thompson will remain on the job until further notice. Last year he said he would resign to spend more time with his family in Nevada.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A dryer fire prompted the evacuation of a Fargo hotel.
Fire Department Battalion Chief Lee Soeth says smoke from the Monday morning fire was limited to the first floor of the Expressway Suites, but guests were evacuated for about 20 minutes as a precaution.
The small fire set off one sprinkler that quickly extinguished the flames. No injuries were reported. A damage estimate was not immediately available.
MINOT, N.D. (AP) – A Minot man is being held in the Ward County Jail after authorities say he assaulted his fiancée and held her against her will.
The man is accused of physically assaulting his fiancée on Saturday morning. Police say he then held her in a basement, refusing to let her leave.
The man is being charged with felonious restraint, a Class C felony, and simple assault, a Class B misdemeanor.
The woman was treated for her injuries at Trinity Hospital in Minot.
MINOT, N.D. (AP) – The defense for a man accused of killing another man in Minot more than a year ago will start presenting its case this week.
Prosecutors on Friday rested their case in the trial of 38-year-old Anthony Campbell, after calling 17 witnesses to the stand.
Campbell’s attorney is to begin calling witnesses Tuesday, after the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday.
Campbell is accused of killing 25-year-old Shannon Brunelle, who was found stabbed to death in September 2014 in an apartment building garage where he’d been staying.
Prosecutors maintain that DNA evidence links Campbell to the crime. Defense attorney Samuel Gereszek said in his opening statement to the jury last week that there are other explanations for Campbell’s presence in the garage the night Brunelle died.
WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) – Two Williston men accused of physically and sexually assaulting a woman have been scheduled for trial late this year.
Twenty-one-year-old Jean-Michael Kisi and 22-year-old David Mbulu face charges ranging from conspiracy to gross sexual imposition to attempted murder. They’re to stand trial beginning Dec. 19.
The two were charged after authorities last November found a 24-year-old woman covered in blood and wandering along a road near Epping. Authorities say she had been beaten and raped. She was airlifted to a hospital in Minot.
In world and national news…
NEW YORK (AP) – Relatives of a former FBI agent who disappeared in Iran almost nine years ago say they’re happy for the families of the Americans who were just released by that country, but wish they had something to celebrate as well. Robert Levinson vanished from an Iranian resort in March 2007. An Associated Press investigation revealed he was working for the CIA at the time. Levinson’s family has pushed the U.S. government to bring him home but Iran officials have said they don’t know where Levinson is. Five Americans being held in Iran were released Saturday, the same day last summer’s nuclear deal was finalized.
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – All three Democratic presidential candidates were in South Carolina Monday, speaking at the state NAACP’s rally on the holiday to commemorate civil rights leader Martin Luther King. Hillary Clinton was the only candidate to discuss at length the Confederate flag that was removed from the capitol grounds last summer. She says South Carolina had to choose between honoring King’s legacy or the Confederacy and made the right choice. Bernie Sanders says King must be remembered as a dynamic figure who fought for the poor. And Martin O’Malley said King would be ashamed the county has made it harder to vote but easier to buy a gun.
WASHINGTON, New Hampshire (AP) – Ted Cruz is accusing his Republican rival Donald Trump of displaying inconsistent conservativism, suggesting he is not prepared to be president. Cruz Monday accused Trump of becoming “rattled” and “dismayed” by the Texas senator’s gains. The war of words between Cruz and Trump intensified in recent days, with Trump continuing to question Cruz’s eligibility to be on the ballot given his Canadian birth, and focusing on loans Cruz received from Citibank and Goldman Sachs for his 2012 Senate race.
HONOLULU (AP) – Authorities searching for 12 Marines missing after two helicopters crashed off Hawaii have found some life rafts that were carried aboard the aircraft. A Coast Guard spokeswoman says some of the rafts were inflated, but it’s not clear how that happened. The search for any survivors of last week’s crash is continuing today. Search teams from various agencies have been at work around-the-clock since a civilian reported the crash late Thursday. The cause of the crash is not yet known.
MEXICO CITY (AP) – Mexican authorities say they want to talk to actor Kate del Castillo, who arranged Sean Penn’s interview with drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman. A federal official says investigators have formally asked del Castillo to meet with them about the encounter she and Penn had with Guzman. The official says del Castillo is considered a witness and is not accused of any crime. Guzman was captured earlier this month, six months after escaping from a maximum-security prison. Penn’s article about Guzman was published by Rolling Stone a day after his capture.
