A weekend tractor fire in southeastern North Dakota's Barnes County killed an 87-year-old rural Litchville man.
Sheriff Randy McClaflin says Wesley Ten Pas was burning a slough Saturday when the flames grew out of control and burned the tractor he was driving.
Ten Pas was taken to a Minneapolis burn hospital, where he died.
