Good morning, Moorhead.

Zoltar Tattoo (located on Eighth Street) celebrated five years in business on August 10th with a party that featured a DJ, food, gift bag giveaways, and raffle prizes from its artists.

The shop’s owner said local talent helps create a thriving scene for quality tattoo artistry.

A registered sex offender jumped into the Red River near 2nd Street North and 1st Avenue North on Saturday, August 9, prompting rescuers using a Zodiac boat along with police from Fargo and Moorhead to pull him from the water near the Hjemkomst Center before he was evaluated and booked into Cass County Jail where he faces charges including failure to register, preventing arrest, refusal to halt, and providing false information to law enforcement.

Diane Wray Williams, the first woman to serve in the Minnesota House and a former Moorhead City Council member, died July 31 at 87 after an eight-month battle with cancer—she started a preschool and was active in local community programs.

A memorial service will be held Saturday, September 20 at 2 PM at First Presbyterian Church in Moorhead.
