Sheriff’s Department was on scene at
the residence, on standby.
The family’s two dogs, both Ger—
man Shepherds, were outside at the
time and bothwere unharmed. “The
dogs both were affected by the fire,
their water source comes from within
the hOme, which they could not have
access to,” explained Gerald.
The home is located just a few
miles North of town; It was saved
from total destruction, but endured a
significant amount of smoke damage.
Every room in the home including
both childrens’rooms located in the
far back comer of the home, no
where near the flames, was covered
in ashes and black soot.
The family had already begun the
process of removing all their personal
belongings that had not been destroyed
by the fire itself and were moving the
items into the back of a truck.
Inside the house, Stenson stood at
the top of the staircase, which‘ leads
down into the basement. He pointed
at the wall separating the garage and
home in the upper comer of the ceil—
ing structure. “There’s the firewall in
there and it did its job,” he said. He
also pointed out that if there was any
other air source in the home besides
the one small window where the
smoke was rolling out, “we would
have been in big trouble.”
Rock Lake Fire Chief Jordan
Stenson said the cause of the fire is
undetermined at this time.
The home also has significant water
damage in the basement and areas
where the fire departments involved ‘
had to extinguish the flames, adding to
the damages from the fireand smoke.

Active COVlD-19 cases up steeply in state.
Active COVID-l9 cases contin-
ued a sharp upward climb in North
Dakota on Friday, an increase likely
driven in part by the fast-spreading
delta variant and continued vaccine
apathy. '
The state Health Department’s
virus dashboard on Friday showed
431 active cases North Dakota, with
109 of them in Burleigh-Morton. Ac—
tive cases since the start of the week
have increased by 60% in the two
counties and by 82% statewide.
Eighty-five new virus cases were-
confirmed Friday from 1,896 tests
completed Thursday. State officials
calculated a positivity rate of 4.6%,
and a 14-day rolling average test pos-
itivity rate of 2.8%. The latter rate
has climbed steadily since a recent
low of 1.14% on July 3-, though it re—
mains within the target range of less
than 5%.
The newly confirmed virus cases
brought North Dakota’s pandemic
total to 111,570, with 109,600 recov—

eries, 1,539 deaths and 4,393 hospi-
talizations.
One new death was confirmed
Friday, according to the dashboard.
The state no longer publicly reports
the county, sex and age range of
newly confirmed deaths, . but
Burleigh’s total increased by one, to
197. Morton’s total remained at 102.
Eleven COVlD-l9 patients re-
mained in a hospital in the state on
Friday, down from 18 just two days
earlier. But state health officials are
urging people who are not vaccinated
against—the coronavirus to get a shot,
to help stem another pandemic spike
in cases, hospitalizations and deaths.
Adult vaccinatidns in North
Dakota began to plateau two months
ago. The state’s vaccine dash-
board on Friday showed 49.4% of el-
igible adults are considered fully
vaccinated. That’s up only about 3%
COVID-I9 numbers are spiking
around the country as the delta vari-
ant spreads, accounting for most new
cases. ,
l The federal Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention this week
recommended that people wear
masks in public indoor settings in
areas with substantial or high
COVlD-l9 tranSmission. That’s cal-
culated basedon new cases per capita
and testing results.
