Mandan Man Brings Closure To A Bismarck Family
The news hit us quickly and sadly started sinking in as the minutes went by. Tragically a young man who had been missing since 2021, has officially been identified as Chase Hurdle - a high school student who was last seen on camera in the hallways of Bismarck High and then spotted near Memorial Bridge in Bismarck - at around 9:25 am back on November 2, 2021 - no sign of Chase, no evidence of any harm done - just a city and family in complete sadness - what happened? We may never know the reason why for his disappearance - but just last Sunday ( June 9th, 2024 ), a body was found.

According to komando.com these items that are mentioned are explained as to WHY they are deemed illegal, and in some States, they are not. I'm also quite sure that people will continue to throw away things right and left without knowing OR caring if it could be dangerous to others and the environment. See for yourself if you are guilty of tossing any of these into the trash.
