\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say 83-year-old Robert Slavick was driving a pickup truck that was struck by another pickup on Old Highway 10 west of Mandan on Tuesday afternoon.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Slavick’s pickup was pushed into a ravine, and he died at the scene.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – A spokesman for Bernie Sanders says the Vermont senator had a “wide-ranging discussion” with President Barack Obama Thursday about issues facing working families and ways to “create an economy that works for all people,” not just the wealthy. The spokesman says Sanders requested the meeting with Obama because he was “interested in his input.” Sanders is also meeting Thursday with Democratic Senate leaders.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – House Republicans are laying out a national security agenda that seeks to turn the conversation away from Donald Trump’s contentious presidential campaign and toward concrete policies for securing America’s borders and defeating extremist groups. Speaking today at the Council on Foreign Relations, Congressman Michael McCaul of Texas said Trump’s proposed plan to ban all Muslims from coming into the United States isn’t practical. He says the U.S. can’t ban an entire race or religion from entry. House Speaker Paul Ryan, meanwhile, says President Barack Obama “shrugged off” the Islamic State group.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BALTIMORE (AP) – A police captain who used to oversee the development of Baltimore Police Department policies has been testifying in the trial of a police van driver facing a murder charge in the death of a black man who was injured in the van. The trial for Officer Caesar Goodson began today. Capt. Martin Bartness testified that officers are required to ensure the safety of prisoners and buckle them into seat belts. Prosecutors say Goodson intentionally left Freddie Gray unbuckled and gave him a “rough ride,” and was negligent when he failed to get Gray a medic. Goodson’s defense attorney says Goodson followed the rules.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – Federal officials say they’ve ruled out requiring psychological testing for airline pilots. This, despite an air crash last year in which a German pilot deliberately flew an airliner full of passengers into a mountainside. Michael Huerta, the Federal Aviation Administration’s administrator, says psychological tests are ineffective because they reveal a pilot’s mental health for only a moment in time without providing insight into whether the pilot will suffer problems later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
