\n\u00a0
\nJudge David Nelson decided Monday to hold Jonathan Horvath for a preliminary hearing and arraignment on April 23.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Horvath is accused of shooting 28-year-old Derrick\u00a0Spiegel of Williston March 16 on a sidewalk outside the Heartbreakers bar following arguments. Police in an affidavit say that two or three shots were fired, with three spent 9 millimeter casings found at the scene.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Horvath was captured in Billings, Mont., on March 18.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Schaffhausen’s lawyers say he was driven by mental illness. Prosecutors say that he brought the alleged murder weapon with him some 500 miles, indicating he had planned the slayings.

\u00a0\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Abortion rights activists plan to circulate petitions to bring three anti-abortion measures to a statewide vote.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Secretary of State Al Jaeger says his office received the requests Tuesday afternoon. Gary Hangsleben of Grand Forks is listed as chairman of the sponsoring committee.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gov. Jack Dalrymple signed abortion bills last week that would make North Dakota the most restrictive state in the nation to get the procedure. One measure would ban abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, when a fetal heartbeat can first be detected. Another would prohibit women from having an abortion because a fetus has a genetic defect, such as Down syndrome.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A third measure would require a doctor who performs abortions to be a physician with hospital-admitting privileges.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 YMCA staff\u00a0says it’s policy for the children to go outside to play every day except in extreme winter conditions. Temperatures were in the mid-teens Monday morning.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 YMCA President Paul Finstad says that the teachers were having difficulty getting the child to wear his outdoor apparel, so they took the child and his clothes outside and “had him stand on his snowsuit.” He says it was not proper procedure.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A North Dakota man has been sentenced to 19 years in prison for possessing and receiving child pornography.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A conference committee of three House members and three senators voted unanimously Tuesday to delete the amendment from a Senate measure. The bill is aimed at outlawing abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy based on the disputed premise that a fetus can feel pain at that point.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Republican Rep. Bette Grande of Fargo sponsored the amendment to halt NDSU’s grant, which provides funding for voluntary sex education to Fargo-area teens with parental consent.
