      BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota Supreme Court has upheld a $500,000 cap on damages in a 2015 fatal school bus-train crash near Larimore.<\/p>\n

      The bus driver and a student died when the Larimore school bus with 13 students collided with a BNSF Railway train on Jan. 5, 2015, at a crossing east of the town. Ten other students were hospitalized.<\/p>\n

      Investigators determined the crash was the result of driver error.<\/p>\n

      The parents of several students who were involved in a lawsuit against the school district appealed a district court ruling that upheld the damage cap.<\/p>\n

      The Supreme Court ruled the damage cap for claims against political subdivisions is constitutional.<\/p>\n

      MINOT, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The developer of two problem-plagued parking structures in downtown Minot says it’ll submit plans to the city for a $20 million residential apartment complex.<\/p>\n

      Cypress Development announced Monday that it’s preparing final plans to seek Minot’s approval of the five-story residential apartment complex.<\/p>\n

      The Minot Daily News reports that the city recently took over management of the parking ramps from Cypress Development and is suing the company for millions.<\/p>\n

      The city says the developer owes outstanding rent, construction-related expenses and loan repayments. The ramps opened in 2016 after years of contractor disputes and delays.<\/p>\n

      Cypress Development spokeswoman Janine Carnel says they’re going to work the issue out in court and then they believe they’ll still be able to move forward with building the apartments.<\/p>\n

      In world and national news…<\/p>\n

      AUSTIN, Texas (AP) \u2014 The San Antonio Police Department says its police chief was mistaken when he said that investigators found a second package bomb that hadn’t detonated at a FedEx distribution center. The department says in a news release police Chief William McManus misspoke at a news conference and that there was only one package bomb at the Schertz facility _ the one that exploded early Tuesday. Officials say that package bomb apparently was addressed to an Austin home.GREAT MILLS, Md. (AP) \u2014 The sheriff says a 16-year-old girl is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries after a shooting at a high school in southern Maryland. St. Mary’s County Tim Cameron says a 14-year-old boy was also hurt in the Tuesday morning shooting at Great Mills High School. Cameron told a news conference that the shooter _ who died after being confronted by a school resource officer _ has been identified as a 17-year-old boy.WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders says the poisoning of an ex-spy in Britain didn’t come up in President Donald Trump’s phone call with Russia’s Vladimir Putin. The British government has blamed Moscow for the attack with a military-grade nerve agent. Sanders told reporters that Trump also didn’t raise the issues of election meddling or Russia’s allegedly tainted voting process. She says the call was meant to discuss areas of cooperation between the U.S. and Russia.LONDON (AP) \u2014 A British company, Cambridge Analytica, says it will help a U.K. probe into whether Facebook data was improperly used to sway elections. Britain’s information commissioner says she’s using her legal powers to investigate Facebook and Cambridge Analytica amid reports that the company allegedly used the data to help Donald Trump win. Commissioner Elizabeth Denham’s office says she gave Cambridge Analytica a deadline to produce the information she wanted, but that it failed to meet that deadline.WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Supreme Court seems likely to strike down a California law that mainly regulates anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers. Both conservative and liberal justices voiced skepticism Tuesday about the law that requires the centers to tell clients about the availability of contraception, abortion and pre-natal care, at little or no cost.<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
