OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Conagra is selling Wesson oil for $285 million to the J.M. Smucker Company as it hones its focus on its strongest brands.

CEO Sean Connolly said Tuesday that the sale is part of a reorganization that was undertaken after he was picked to lead Conagra in 2015. Conagra moved its headquarters to Chicago from Omaha, Nebraska.

Smucker said Wesson is expected to add $230 million in sales and roughly $30 million in pretax earnings.

Conagra Brands will initially continue producing Wesson after the sale until the work moves to Smucker’s existing oil manufacturing plant in Cincinnati, Ohio.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City police say the death of a 31-year-old man near a walking and biking trail is being investigated as a homicide.

The body of Chase Hardin was found Monday morning along the Harry Wiggins Trolley Track Trail in south Kansas City.

The discovery comes less than two weeks after police said they were investigating similarities between four other homicides along another trail that stretches from south Kansas City to Olathe, Kansas. All the victims were male, ages 54 to 67. Three were walking their dogs. The Kansas City Star reports that the FBI has joined the investigation into those deaths.

Police said no evidence exists to link the four deaths. And spokeswoman Stacey Graves says there is no evidence Monday’s death is related to the four earlier deaths.

SAUGET, Ill. (AP) — A group of military veterans in southern Illinois hopes their Memorial Day weekend effort to play the longest non-stop baseball game ever was successful.

The Belleville News-Democrat reports that the marathon game ended about 10:20 a.m. Monday after 74 hours, 26 minutes and 52 seconds. Two teams of 28 players from around the country participated. The game started at 7:40 a.m. Friday at GCS Ballpark in Sauget, Illinois, across the Mississippi River from St. Louis.

The game went on for 292 innings. The blue team beat the gray team by a score of 396-255. The game raised more than $100,000 for a St. Louis-based veterans’ nonprofit group called The Mission Continues.

Participants now plan to submit evidence of their game to the Guinness Book of World Records.

DETROIT (AP) — BMW is recalling more than 45,000 older 7-Series cars in the U.S. because the doors can open unexpectedly while they’re being driven.

The recall covers cars from the 2005 through 2008 model years that have the comfort access and soft door close options.

BMW says the doors may appear to be closed and latched but can inadvertently open due to road conditions or occupant contact with the door. A sudden opening could cause someone to be ejected or increase the risk of injury in a crash.

The company says in documents posted by the government that the latches can malfunction over time. The documents didn’t say if the problem had caused any crashes or injuries.

BMW doesn’t have a fix yet. Owners with questions can contact BMW at (800) 525-7417.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — A Missouri Senate committee has advanced a proposal that would allow some companies that use a lot of electricity to negotiate lower rates.

The committee advanced a proposal Thursday after hearing a state Public Service Commission analysis that said average consumers wouldn’t see significant rate increases under most scenarios.

The bill is intended to bring a new steel mill and to entice a company to partially open an old aluminum smelter near New Madrid. It would allow the companies to negotiate lower electrical rates for a 10-year contract.

The analysis said that consumer rates wouldn’t significantly change over 10 years if the steel mill opens. But if inflation remains consistently high, customers could see a maximum $54 increase per year after 10 years if the aluminum smelter resumes operations.

CHARLESTON, Mo. (AP) — A southeast Missouri judge has let stand for now an order by the state’s attorney general stripping a sheriff of his duties.

KFVS-TV reports Circuit Judge William Syler’s ruling against Mississippi County Sheriff Cory Hutcheson came after a hearing Friday in Charleston. But Syler plans to hold another hearing on the matter.

Hutcheson faces 18 criminal charges and is under investigation in an inmate’s death.

Hutcheson was suspended after being arrested in April on counts alleging, among other things, that he handcuffed an innocent 77-year-old woman with such force that she suffered a heart attack. Attorney General Josh Hawley says Hutcheson was at the county jail May 5 and was involved in an altercation that led to 28-year-old inmate Tory Sanders’ death.

Hutcheson has denied the allegations.

WASHINGTON, Kan. (AP) — A northern Kansas woman is fighting a decision by state fair officials to strip her champion lamb title and winnings because of alleged performance enhancement.

Kansas State University student Gabryelle Gilliam had the grand champion market lamb at the 2016 Kansas State Fair, but she was disqualified in January for “unethical fitting.”

The Kansas Department of Agriculture’s Dr. Paul Grosdidier says he concluded after a carcass exam that a natural substance was injected into the animal “within a few days” of inspection. State fair rules prohibit treating animals with a substance to alter its body in any way.

Gilliam alleges in Reno County District Court documents that the fair’s actions weren’t supported by substantial evidence. She wants the disqualification overturned.

The Kansas Attorney General’s office is seeking more time to respond to her complaint.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A divided Iowa Supreme Court has reset the way criminals are charged by redefining when a person is formally arrested.

The court ruled Thursday in cases involving three Waterloo men accused of drugging and raping two 15-year-old girls in 2012. The men were not charged until more than a year later after DNA samples returned from testing labs connecting them to the case.

The Iowa Court of Appeals in 2015 ordered charges dropped because the men weren’t charged within 45 days after they were questioned, which the court considered their arrest date.

The Supreme Court Thursday reverses that saying an arrest doesn’t occur for the purposes of a speedy indictment until a suspect appears before a magistrate judge and not simply when someone is physically detained but later released.

The decision means Deantay Williams, Taevon Washington and Cordarrel Smith will go to trial on sexual assault and kidnapping charges.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — A St. Louis man could face up to a year in prison after admitting that he pretended to be a Purple Heart recipient to scam people out of $4,300.

Federal authorities say 46-year-old Mark Chartrand pleaded guilty Thursday to a misdemeanor “Stolen Valor” charge. Sentencing is Aug. 22.

Chartrand was on a trip to California when he convinced Airbnb hosts that he was a decorated, wounded veteran. They allowed him to stay without paying a delinquent bill and loaned him money for car repairs.

He will be required to pay back the money to the victims.

Chartrand pleaded guilty in 2012 to a charge of impersonating a federal agent. He received five years on probation.
