\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mandan Parks and Recreation Director Cole Higlin says the new ban did help keep parks clean. He says in past years, workers spent two weeks cleaning up fireworks debris from the parks.<\/p>\n

\nMarc Eichler is accused of coercing two minors into becoming victims of child pornography. He is charged in federal court with seven counts, including production and receipt of materials depicting the sexual exploitation of minors. He has pleaded not guilty.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Magistrate Judge Charles Miller ordered Eichler released on his own recognizance. A trial has been set for Aug. 1 in Bismarck.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Eichler was formerly employed by Trinity Health in Minot.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Argus Leader reports that Eichler also had been a neurosurgeon in Rapid City, South Dakota but his medical license expired in 2008.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sarah Creveling was originally scheduled to go on trial Feb. 23 in Bismarck on charges of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and money laundering. The trial was delayed first to allow Creveling to testify in her ex-husband’s murder trial and again to allow her to consider a plea deal.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 James Henrikson, Creveling’s one-time husband and business partner, was convicted on murder-for-hire charges involving the deaths of two former oil patch associates. Henrikson was sentenced to two consecutive terms of life in prison.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Creveling says another delay is needed in her proceedings because she has a new lawyer.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Cass County Sgt. Tim Briggeman\u00a0says \u00a0deputy Jesse Barbot was arrested about two weeks ago in Barnes County.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Briggeman says Barbot is assigned to the jail. He says Barbot will continue to work pending the outcome of an internal investigation.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Barbot’s attorney didn’t immediately return a call from The Associated Press seeking comment on the case Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A civil lawsuit filed last month accusing a Fargo couple of copying architectural drawings and peddling them to builders sparked the Fargo-Moorhead Home Builders Association to bring in an expert on federal copyright law.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Clay Dietrich (DEE’-trick), immediate past president of the home builders group, says it’s not the first time they’ve talked about copyright infringement, but wanted to offer a refresher course.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A civil lawsuit filed by Building Concepts, Inc. accuses Brian and Linda Meier of federal copyright infringement.

\n\u00a0Tovias Carrillo-Cerna entered not guilty pleas Tuesday to felony charges of attempted murder and possessing a weapon in a correctional facility.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say Carrillo-Cerna stabbed a fellow prisoner in December at the penitentiary’s weight room. State officials at the time announced they had locked down the facility because an inmate had assaulted another inmate.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say four inmates told investigators Carrillo-Cerna stabbed the man.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Carrillo-Cerna was transferred to the penitentiary last year after he pleaded guilty to possessing a weapon while in custody at the Williams County Correctional Center. Carillo-Cerna was at the correctional center awaiting an August murder trial in the 2014 slaying of Juan Palacios in Williams County.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NEW YORK (AP) – The Chicago Cubs became the first team since the 1976 Cincinnati Reds’ Big Red Machine to have five players voted as All-Star Game starters when their entire infield earned the honor Tuesday along with centerfielder Dexter Fowler.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 First baseman Anthony Rizzo, second baseman Ben Zobrist, shortstop Addison Russell and third baseman Kris Bryant also were elected. The only other team to start four infielders was the 1963 St. Louis Cardinals.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The July 12 game at San Diego’s Petco Park will feature 11 first-time starters, the most since 2005. In a sign of the sport’s generational change, 12 of the 17 elected starters are 26 or younger.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Boston has three-first time starters and four overall. Designated hitter David Ortiz, who is retiring at the end of the season, became a 10-time All-Star and is joined by shortstop Xander Bogaerts and outfielders Jackie Bradley Jr. and Mookie Betts. Eduardo Nunez is the lone Minnesota Twins player named to the American League roster.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 World champion Peter Sagan is wearing the yellow jersey for a third straight day but the Slovak could have a tough time protecting his overall lead in the fifth leg, a 216-kilometer route from Limoges to Le Lioran in the Massif Central.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The stage features five climbs in a constant up-and-down finish that could suit defending champion Chris Froome.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The sky was clear at the start with warm temperatures.
