WAHPETON, N.D. — A 41-year-old Wahpeton woman is in custody after a 90-minute standoff on Thursday night, Sept. 5.
Officers were called to a residence in Wahpeton at about 6:40 p.m. Thursday for a violation of a protection order and vandalism, according to a news release from the Wahpeton Police Department.
When officers arrived, they located the suspect, Michelle Elizabeth Luna, sitting inside a vehicle outside her residence.
As officers approached the vehicle, Luna brandished a gun, according to the release from Wahpeton Police Chief Matthew Anderson.
Police established a perimeter around the area as they attempted to contact the woman, who barricaded herself in the vehicle, the release said.
A shelter-in-place order was issued for a 12-block radius, asking residents to stay inside their homes and away from the scene. According to a Facebook post from the Wahpeton Daily News, the standoff was in the 1000 block of Seventh Avenue North.
After attempts to contact Luna were unsuccessful for roughly 90 minutes, the Southern Valley Special Response Team responded to the scene, Anderson said.
Officers were able to enter the vehicle and found Luna lying inside with the shotgun. She was arrested and is being held at the Richland County Jail, the release said. She faces charges of violation of a protection order, reckless endangerment and resisting arrest.
The shelter-in-place order was lifted at about 9:30 p.m.

BISMARCK — High school juniors and seniors in North Dakota have a chance to earn a $10,000 scholarship from the
U.S. Senate Youth Program.
Every year, two students are selected from each state based on their leadership qualities in
an elected or appointed student office
with the “ability to serve others and represent constituents,” according to a Thursday, Sept. 5, release from the state Department of Public Instruction. Applications are ranked and scored by a state selection committee.
The scholarship also includes a “Washington Week” event in March 2025, during which recipients will travel to Washington D.C. to hear speakers from the legislative, executive and judicial branches of the federal government, in addition to from members of the national media.
Due on Sunday, Oct. 20, applications include the completion of an
online form,
writing two essays, gathering letters of recommendation and signatures from a guardian and school principal.
“North Dakota students who are interested in leadership and public service should take advantage of this opportunity,” Kirsten Baesler, State Superintendent, said in the release. “It gives them a chance to develop their leadership skills with a group of their peers and discuss and debate some of the most important issues our country faces.”
Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
