FARGO, N.D. – North Dakota law enforcement agencies say they will no longer assist other agencies from the bordering state of Minnesota after Minnesota lawmakers passed stringent “use of force” standards outside established U.S. Supreme Court Law. The change in Minnesota law seems to have led to an immediate, unintended consequence: less assistance and support from North Dakota agencies along the border of the two states.
Prior to the new law, Minnesota officers could respond to deadly threats and use deadly force according to case law established by the United States Supreme Court under

WEST FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) – A former West Fargo teacher who suddenly resigned earlier this month is accused of soliciting a minor by computer.
Fifty-eight-year-old Ronald Thompson has been charged with one count of luring a minor by computer or other electronic means.
West Fargo Police Chief Denis Otterness says investigators received a tip from an out-of-state investigator on Jan. 28 that Thompson was attempting to solicit a minor online. He says the “minor” who Thompson was attempting to lure was actually an out-of-state investigator posing as a minor.
According to court documents, Thompson believed he was communicating with a 14-year-old girl. He admitted to chatting online with multiple females, but denied having any inappropriate contacts or chats with anyone in the immediate area.
