\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say 19-year-old Shatehya Azure lost control of the pickup on a BIA road northwest of Belcourt about 1 a.m. Friday, and the vehicle rolled twice in the ditch.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Azure was ejected and died at the scene. Three passengers were able to get out of the pickup and call for help.<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say 38-year-old Christian Marlar and 27-year-old Joseph Johnson brought meth from Arizona to distribute to local drug traffickers in Fargo, North Dakota, and neighboring Moorhead, Minnesota.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Marlar and Johnson both are from Tucson. U.S. Attorney Christopher Myers says they were known in Fargo-Moorhead as the “Arizona Boys.” Marlar was sentenced to seven years in federal prison and Johnson to 10 years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Three other people were sentenced earlier in the conspiracy to prison terms ranging from half a year to more than 10 years.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fifty-year-old Rodney Friesz was accused of shooting 62-year-old Gene Jassmann in the head with a .22-caliber rifle after the two argued in October 2014, then torching the home that belonged to Friesz’s brother.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Friesz was initially charged with murder and arson. A jury in February convicted him of arson and the lesser charge of manslaughter.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Friesz told the judge at Monday’s sentencing hearing that he plans to appeal.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Longtime Democratic Sen. Tim Mathern from Fargo filed Monday to run for the job as state treasurer. Mathern says if he’s elected, he will work to close the office and split its duties among other agencies.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Schmidt was the first Republican in 20 years to have the job when she was elected in 2004. The office has survived past attempts to abolish it, including those led by Republicans.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The change would require approval from North Dakota’s voters. They defeated attempts in 2000 and 1984.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Schmidt says those votes attest to North Dakotans’ support of the office.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It has been the smallest state agency headed by an elected official. It has eight employees.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Democrats will now challenge Republicans’ stronghold on the Public Service Commission, state treasurer and insurance commissioner. No Democrat came forward by the deadline late Monday to run for state auditor.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Longtime state Sen. Tim Mathern of Fargo will challenge incumbent Kelly Schmidt for state treasurer. Ruth Buffalo of Mandaree will run on the Democratic ticket for state insurance commissioner, a seat being vacated by Republican Adam Hamm.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Dakota Dry Bean plant is properly located in an industrial zone in the northeastern North Dakota town of about 150 people. But some nearby residents are frustrated with what they say is dust coating homes and vehicles.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The business recently refurbished its grain elevator. Homeowner Mike Wentz says dust problems are the worst they’ve been in a decade.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A Health Department inspection in February found the facility in compliance with air quality laws. Company CEO Chuck Carlson acknowledges there have been some dust clouds but says ongoing improvements at the plant should create “pretty much a dust-free environment.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Some residents aren’t convinced, and some say the damage is already done.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – Most Republican voters apparently think the candidate with the most delegates heading into the party’s convention in July should be the GOP’s presidential nominee, regardless of whether he holds the number of delegates needed to secure the nomination. A new Associated Press-GfK poll finds 58 percent of Republican voters who were surveyed hold that view, while 40 percent think it would be acceptable for the delegates to pick a different candidate. The poll also finds that Republicans are more likely to think of Donald Trump than either of his current rivals as a possible general election winner.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) – Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have been certified as the winners of Missouri’s presidential primaries almost a month after the state’s primary. The official results show Trump led Texas Sen. Ted Cruz by a fifth of a percentage point and Clinton led Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders by a quarter of a percentage point. A recount remains a possibility — Missouri law says candidates who lose by less than half of a percent have a week to request one.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) – New York’s legislature has become the latest to pass a bill to exempt tampons and other feminine hygiene products from state sales taxes. The Republican lawmaker who sponsored the bill says the state already exempts from sales taxes medicine and medical equipment. She notes that what she calls the state’s “out-of-touch tax laws” also exempt items like cupcakes and circus performances. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has indicated he’ll sign the bill into law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
