HAZELTON, N.D. — A 71-year-old Hazelton man was killed in a crash which occurred Monday morning, Feb. 26, in his home town.

At roughly 9:30 a.m., a semi truck hauling agricultural products was traveling northbound on U.S. Highway 83 when it crashed into a pickup truck at the intersection of 64th Street Southeast and North Dakota Highway 34.

The semi crashed into the right side of the pickup and both vehicles became interlocked and stopped in the ditch on the northeast portion of the intersection.

The roads crossing Highway 83 were posted with stop signs, a report from the North Dakota Highway Patrol stated.

The driver of the pickup, who was not wearing a seat belt, was extracted from the crash and taken to the Linton Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The driver of the semi, a 23-year-old from Napoleon, was wearing a seat belt and was uninjured.

The semi driver currently does not face charges stemming from the crash.

The Emmons County Sheriff’s Office, Linton Ambulance Service, Hazelton Fire Department and Braddock Fire Department also responded to the crash.

Hazelton is roughly 45 miles southeast of Bismarck.

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.

Standing 6-foot, 175 pounds, White played free safety, cornerback and strong safety, along with wide receiver for Waukee High School as a senior. He accumulated 30 total tackles in seven games. He’s also an impressive track athlete.

White is currently unranked by 247Sports. He held other scholarship offers from Western Illinois, Lindenwood, Northern Iowa and Minnesota State Mankato, according to the site. He’s now the 30th high schooler verbally committed to the Gophers 2026 recruited class, before the early national signing period begins next week on Wednesday, December 3.

Minnesota’s 2026 class currently ranked as the 25th-best in the country, according to 247Sports, as of Sunday.

COOKEVILLE, Tennessee (KNFL/KFGO/AP) — Colton Brunell, Gaven Ziebarth and Charles Langama each had a touchdown run in the final quarter for North Dakota in a 31-6 win over No. 13 seed Tennessee Tech on Saturday in the first round of the FCS playoffs.

North Dakota will play at No. 4 seed Tarleton State in the second round game on Saturday.

Jerry Kaminski found Deng Deng in the end zone off a 21-yard pass in the second quarter to make it 10-0 for North Dakota (8-5). Later in the second half, Kaminski took a late hit to the helmet which kept him sidelined for the rest of the game. Kaminski finished with nine completions for 98 yards, a touchdown and an interception.

North Dakota relied heavily on their run game after Kaminski’s injury. In the fourth quarter, Brunell scored on an 8-yard run, Ziebarth punched it in from three yards out, and Langama scored his first career touchdown off an 18-yard sprint up the middle.

North Dakota’s defense came up big multiple times, accounting for six sacks, four fumble recoveries, two interceptions and shut out Tennessee Tech for three quarters.

Tennessee Tech’s Kekoa Visperas completed 30 of 51 passes for 278 yards and threw one touchdown — a 45-yarder to Brian Courtney in the third quarter. The Golden Eagles finish their season 11-2.
