Valley City\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 Valley City Police Chief, Phil Hatcher reports, on Sunday (Jun 25, 2017)\u00a0 The Police Department, was dispatched to Family Dollar Store concerning a man with a gun, in the parking lot.<\/p>\n
The male had reportedly\u00a0 called the store reporting that he was in the parking lot holding a female hostage, and wanted\u00a0 pre-paid credit card numbers given to him or he would harm the hostage.<\/p>\n
Valley City Police, and the Barnes County Sheriff\u2019s Office arrived on the scene and began to investigate, finding nobody\u00a0 in any cars outside the business, which matched the description\u00a0 of what was reported.<\/p>\n
Officers made contact with the store and determined\u00a0 they were still talking to the suspect on the phone.\u00a0 Officers then took over the call as part of the investigation while officers worked with a cell phone provider to determine the location of the caller.\u00a0 No threat\u00a0 of imminent\u00a0 harm, or a hostage was ever located at the Valley City store.<\/p>\n
The cell phone the male suspect\u00a0 was using was \u201cpinged\u201d by the cell phone provider and determined to be in Alabama.\u00a0 Contact was made with the local law enforcement jurisdiction of the ping and further investigation is being done to determine who made the call, and to the extent of other calls being made to other Family Dollar establishment.<\/p>\n

This grand opening will be celebrated along with White Cloud Days in Jamestown. The courthouse was the location for North Dakota\u2019s movement towards statehood in the 1880s.<\/p>\n The building houses the most complete collection of pressed tin in the state, and has recently undergone a massive restoration. Updates include an electrical overhaul, new restrooms, boiler installation, and the complete restoration of the historic auditor\u2019s office, sheriff\u2019s office, office of the clerk of court, hallway, jury room, and stairs. The completion of the stairway restoration was funded by the 1883 Courthouse Committee of Jamestown.\u201d<\/p>\n The grand opening will take place from 10 AM to 5 PM and will feature The Old Friends band performing their unique style of music.<\/p>\n The new site is open for visitors from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day, Wednesday\u2019s through Sunday\u2019s. The visit times are 10 AM to 5 PM.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jamestown (CSi) A Marketing Seminar, \u201cMarketing 101: How to get the word out about your small business, will be held Thursday, July 20, 2017 from 10 am \u2013 2:30 pm at the basement of The Center For Economic Development, 120 Second Street Southeast, in Downtown Jamestown.<\/p>\n The Highway Patrol says 20-year-old Michael Westphal was a passenger in a car that rolled on U.S. Highway 83 Saturday evening when the driver became distracted and lost control. Westphal died at the scene.<\/p>\n The 17-year-old boy who was driving and a 19-year-old female passenger were injured.<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n The dry conditions, lack of rain and high winds have created a fire emergency in North Dakota and hurt livestock water supplies, crop and pasture conditions. The risk of wildfires also has increased much earlier than normal. So far 30 counties have issued emergency declarations, burning bans or other fire restrictions. 32-year-old Tony Tanner was apprehended after a complex investigation into his late winter crime spree. Officers used Facebook, store surveillance footage and interviews to identify Tanner as the suspect in several crimes reported in the Bismarck area.<\/p>\n South Central District Judge James Hill ordered Tanner to serve four years at the state penitentiary followed by three years on probation. He is also required to undergo a chemical dependency evaluation and treatment.<\/p>\n The parties will have 60 days to come to a resolution on repaying property owners.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The weekly crop report from the federal Agriculture Department says topsoil moisture supplies statewide are rated 53 percent short or very short, up from 43 percent last week. Subsoil moisture is 46 percent in those categories, up from 38 percent.<\/p>\n North Dakota\u2019s staple spring wheat crop is rated 9 percent very poor, 18 percent poor, 34 percent fair, 36 percent good and 3 percent excellent.<\/p>\n In the ranching community, pasture and range conditions are rated 61 percent poor or very poor. Stock water supplies are 41 percent in those categories.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Two years after the Air Force opened the massive Powder River Training Complex over the Northern Plains, ranchers impacted by military aircraft exercises say progress has been made in addressing disruptions.<\/p>\n That\u2019s thanks in large part to a new advisory group. About three dozen people representing the interests of ranchers, pilots, airports, the military and others attended the first meeting of the Powder River Council last November at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota.<\/p>\n South Dakota Stockgrowers Association officials say the effort is helping, though there\u2019s still work to do.<\/p>\n Beginning Tuesday, military planes from bases in eight states will take part in the three-day Combat Raider exercise in the 35,000-square-mile complex over the Dakotas, Montana and Wyoming that\u2019s the largest over the continental U.S. The art center removed the gallows-like sculpture called \u201cScaffold\u201d because of opposition from those who said it brought back painful memories of the mass hanging of 38 Dakota men in 1862. Artist Sam Durant said the sculpture was intended to raise awareness about capital punishment and America\u2019s violent past. But, protesters said it was insensitive and trivialized a dark chapter in Minnesota and Dakota history.<\/p>\n The wood remains in storage. Mediator Stephanie Hope Smith tells the Star Tribune the meeting Sunday did not set any time or process on how the wood should be handled. The project includes removing trees and repairing erosion damage along the river bank. The estimated cost is $2 million for the work scheduled in the next few years.<\/p>\n The corps updated its standards for levees after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and other areas in 2005 and is now requiring upgrades to meet those criteria.<\/p>\n Minot City Manager Tom Barry says the funding will help maintain and upgrade the city\u2019s flood protection system. The 2011 Souris River flood damaged or destroyed more than 4,000 homes and other structures and caused nearly $700 million in damage. The\u00a0 discussion of giving the oil industry access to the water from the river began this spring after a State Water Commission hydrologist found North Dakota was granting water permits for fracking and other uses that violated a state law.<\/p>\n State lawmakers recently voted in favor of changing the law, but Gov. Doug Burgum issued a moratorium in May by that suspended temporary water permits.<\/p>\n Burgum and other members of the State Water Commission voted Thursday to lift the moratorium. They adopted a new policy that allows the temporary water permits.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In sports\u2026<\/p>\n <\/p>\n AA\u2026<\/p>\n Fargo-Moorhead 5, Sioux Falls 3<\/p>\n <\/p>\n MLB\u2026<\/p>\n INTERLEAGUE<\/p>\n Final L.A.

The deal yesterday came after Olofsson was one of eight restricted free agents receiving qualifying offers. Olofsson will make $675,000 this season and $775,000 next season.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Russell Westbrook has won the NBA\u2019s MVP award after setting a record with 42 triple-doubles last season.<\/p>\n The Oklahoma City All-Star joined Oscar Robertson as the only players to average a triple-double for an entire season, leading the Thunder into the playoffs after Kevin Durant left for Golden State.<\/p>\n Westbrook beat out Houston\u2019s James Harden and San Antonio forward Kawhi (kuh-WY\u2019) Leonard for the league\u2019s top honor.<\/p>\n He ended the two-year reign of Stephen Curry, who last season was the league\u2019s first unanimous MVP.<\/p>\n It capped off the NBA Awards show Monday night, which included stirring tributes to Monty Williams, Craig Sager and Bill Russell.<\/p>\n In other NBA awards:<\/p>\n \u2014Draymond Green is the Defensive Player of the Year, ending Kawhi Leonard\u2019s two-year reign. Green was rewarded for his do-everything role with the NBA champion Golden State Warriors. He led the league in steals and on Feb. 10 had the league\u2019s first triple-double ever that didn\u2019t include points, finishing with 11 rebounds, 10 steals and 10 assists.<\/p>\n \u2014The Milwaukee Bucks and Houston Rockets have become double winners. Giannis Antetokounmpo (YAH\u2019-nihs an-teh-toh-KAHM\u2019-poh) won the Most Improved Player award, following Malcolm Brogdon\u2019s victory for Rookie of the Year to open the show Monday night.<\/p>\n \u2014Houston\u2019s Mike D\u2019Antoni was voted Coach of the Year, the second time he has won the award. He led the Rockets to 55 victories and a league record for 3-pointers this season. D\u2019Antoni, who also won the award while coaching Phoenix, followed Rockets guard Eric Gordon\u2019s win for Sixth Man of the Year.<\/p>\n \u2014Houston guard Eric Gordon has won the Sixth Man of the Year award in his first year as a reserve. Gordon beat out Rockets teammate Lou Williams and former NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala for the award given to the league\u2019s top player off the bench. He set an NBA single-season record for most 3-pointers off the bench, helping the high-scoring Rockets make more shots behind the arc than any team in history.<\/p>\n \u2014Brogdon won the first award Monday night during the first NBA Awards show that was hosted by Drake. Brogdon beat out finalists Joel Embiid and Dario Saric, both of the Philadelphia 76ers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n OMAHA, Neb. (AP) \u2014 Brady Singer struck out a career-high 12 in seven innings, Jonathan India doubled in two runs, and Florida beat LSU 4-3 in Game 1 of the College World Series finals.<\/p>\n The Gators (51-19) need a win Tuesday or Wednesday to earn their first national championship.<\/p>\n Singer\u2019s strikeout total was highest by a single pitcher in a College World Series finals game. Singer (9-5) limited LSU (52-19) to three singles before Antoine Duplantis homered in the sixth.<\/p>\n Florida led 3-0 after LSU starter Russell Reynolds (1-2) issued three straight walks in the fourth, with India driving in two runs on a ground-rule double.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In World and national news..<\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 A prominent Iranian lawmaker has denounced the Supreme Court\u2019s partial reinstatement of President Donald Trump\u2019s travel ban, claiming it\u2019s an \u201cobvious breach\u201d of the 2015 nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers. Hossein Naghavi Hosseini claims that under the nuclear deal, countries that signed it are prohibited from imposing new restrictions or sanctions on Iranians. But he did not explain how that\u2019s relevant to the travel ban, which pertains to six mostly Muslim countries, including Iran.<\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Congress\u2019 nonpartisan budget referee says the Senate Republican health care bill would leave 22 million additional people uninsured in 2026 compared to President Barack Obama\u2019s law. And now, disgruntled GOP senators are forcing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to scramble to rescue the measure before debate even begins. He wants to win Senate passage this week, before a July 4 recess that leaders worry opponents will use to weaken support for the high-profile legislation.<\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Along the way, the Republican crusade to repeal \u201cObamacare\u201d also turned into an effort to put limits on the future growth of Medicaid, which serves about 70 million low-income people. That bit of mission creep is complicating prospects for the GOP legislation, and could lead to deadlock. Medicaid used to be a stepchild, but over time it\u2019s become a financial mainstay in local communities for hospitals, nursing homes, insurers, and most recently treatment centers confronting the opioid crisis.<\/p>\n COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) \u2014 A South Carolina convicted killer says he and a fellow inmate couldn\u2019t bear to spend the rest of their lives behind bars, so they killed four fellow inmates at Kirkland Correctional Institution. Thirty-five-year-old Denver Simmons tells The Associated Press that on April 7, he and 26-year-old Jacob Philip lured four men from the unit for mentally ill prisoners into Simmons\u2019 cell and beat and strangled them. Simmons says he and Philip want to be executed.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CSi Weather\u2026 .REST OF TODAY…Mostly sunny.
