\u00a0 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Fargo officials say they have more than enough sandbags in reserve to handle flooding if the current National Weather Service predictions hold up.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A flood outlook released last month by the weather service says the Red River at Fargo and Moorhead, Minn., has a 70 percent of topping 30 feet and a 5 percent chance of cresting near 38 feet. Flood stage is 18 feet.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fargo officials say about 101,000 sandbags would be needed to hold back the water if it approaches 38 feet. The city currently has 750,000 filled sandbags left over from the 2011 flood.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mike Lukes, spokesman for the weather service in Grand Forks, says this week’s snow storm will likely bump up the risk of flooding in the Red River Valley. He was not specific.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sgt. Kylan Klauzer says tips led police to Menges. Klauzer says Menges is from the Missouri area, though court documents indicate he has been in Dickinson for at least the past year.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court documents do not list an attorney for Menges. He was due to make his initial court appearance Wednesday. The felony charge against him carries a maximum punishment of five years in prison.<\/p>\n

NEW TOWN, N.D. (AP) – Officials on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in western North Dakota say potentially radioactive filters used by the oil industry are being illegally dumped in fields and garbage containers and along roads.
\n\u00a0

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The filters are used to screen fluids at oil wells. Three Affiliated Tribes environmental official Edmund Baker says they’re being found particularly in the Mandaree area.
\n\u00a0
