\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Police Chief Scott Thorsteinson says Kelly Aakre’s son discovered his body Monday afternoon. The chief says Aakre’s body was beneath the doors that had toppled out of a container at a storage lot near the Wahpeton Public School bus garage.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities are awaiting results of an autopsy conducted Tuesday but say they do not suspect foul play.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The motive for the alleged attack wasn’t immediately clear, though the Ward County Sheriff’s Office says the suspect had been waiting for a female that the 41-year-old victim was talking to before he was struck about 8 p.m. Tuesday.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The victim was attended to by paramedics and later went to a hospital on his own. The nature and extent of his injuries aren’t known.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The 38-year-old suspect was arrested later for reckless endangerment and jailed pending a court appearance.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Charles Davis II has appealed to the North Dakota Supreme Court for a full release from the State Hospital in Jamestown. A hearing is set for March 22.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Davis is originally from Texas. He was charged with stabbing to death co-worker Donald Flowers, also of Texas, in a hotel conference room in Minot in March 2011.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Davis was later committed to the State Hospital. He was granted conditional release in 2013, and denied full release a year ago. He appealed to the Supreme Court last September.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jaeger on Wednesday said the measure’s backers must gather about 13,500 qualified signatures by July 11 to put it to a statewide vote in the November general election.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The petition seeks to make it legal to grow, possess, use and distribute marijuana for people 21 and older.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The petition is separate from an effort to legalize medical marijuana in North Dakota. With voters’ approval, that initiative would make it legal for North Dakotans to possess up to 3 ounces of marijuana for medical purposes. It says those who qualify could obtain the drug from a state-licensed dispensary or grow a limited supply for personal use.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PSC Chairwoman Julie Fedorchak says Karl Carson was certified this week by the Federal Railroad Administration after six months of training.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Carson is a former BNSF Railway manager.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The North Dakota Legislature last year established the state-run rail safety pilot program that includes two rail safety inspectors to supplement inspections by the Federal Railroad Administration.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fedorchak says a second state inspector was hired in December and has yet to be certified by the federal agency.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The commission late last year set a July 1 deadline for the camps to shut down, but oil industry officials said some temporary housing is still needed despite the current oil slump.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Commissioner Deanette Piesik proposed reducing the number of crew camp beds 25 percent annually for the next two years, with the complete elimination of the camps by 2020. The commission on Tuesday night rejected the plan on a 3-2 vote.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The decision came after investors in hotels and apartment buildings argued against the proposal, saying they’d be hurt by more temporary housing in the city.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The North Dakota Public Service Commission on Wednesday approved the refund, which totals about $700,000 and will average about $3 per customer.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Minneapolis-based utility had extra costs because the U.S. Department of Energy did not remove spent fuel from two Minnesota nuclear plants by a 1998 deadline.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Xcel reached a $100 million settlement in 2011 with the federal government over costs the company incurred. Xcel has since refunded money to its customers in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, and the Dakotas.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota Xcel customers have been credited or reimbursed about $11 million to date, or about $47 per customer.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The proposed 1,130-mile Dakota Access Pipeline would move oil from North Dakota to Illinois, passing through South Dakota and Iowa.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Argus Leader reports that the Sioux Falls City Council on Tuesday approved an easement for the pipeline to run near the city’s landfill, but it took two votes. The first time around, Councilman Rex Rolfing voted in opposition, saying he was symbolically acknowledging complaints from landowners.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners wants to build the pipeline. Vice president Joey Mahmoud said some eminent domain cases are to be expected.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 UNDATED (AP) – Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager says despite her loss in Michigan, she is moving closer to the number of delegates necessary to win the Democratic presidential nomination. Robby Mook told reporters that while Clinton would have liked to win Michigan, she still ended the night with more delegates that Bernie Sanders got because of her overwhelming victory in Mississippi. Mook says the campaign is confident that it’s nearing the point where its delegate lead will “effectively become insurmountable.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 MIAMI (AP) – Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is barely mentioning GOP presidential rival Marco Rubio, even on the Florida senator’s home turf. Instead, Cruz Wednesday day introduced former candidate Carly Fiorina, who endorsed him at a campaign rally in Miami. Cruz then ripped GOP front-runner Donald Trump. He said Trump would not nominate a conservative Supreme Court justice, but “seek compromise” with Democrats in Congress. Recent polls in Florida show Cruz in third place trailing Trump and Rubio.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 TEHRAN, Iran (AP) – Although the U.S. is warning Iran against violating the landmark nuclear deal with the West — Iran’s new missile tests don’t violate that accord. The deal, which led to Iran dramatically scaling back its nuclear program, does not include provisions against nuclear launches. Iranian media report that Iran test-launched two ballistic missiles today that carried the phrase “Israel must be wiped out” in Hebrew. Visiting Israel today, Vice President Joe Biden said of Iran, “If in fact they break the deal, we will act.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – The father of a Vanderbilt University graduate student who was killed on a school trip to Israel says Taylor Force was exploring civilian life after graduating from West Point and serving in the Army. Stuart Force says his 28-year-old son served tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan before enrolling in business school at Vanderbilt. He was stabbed to death as part of a series of knife and gun attacks that authorities in Israel say were carried out by Palestinians.
