Minot Mayor Tom Ross Resigns Amid Controversial Video Scandal
Minot, North Dakota's Mayor Tom Ross has resigned following the release of a controversial video that led to significant public outcry. The video, which surfaced recently, prompted an internal complaint and a subsequent investigation by the city attorney's office. The nature of the video has not been fully disclosed to the public, but it was severe enough to force Ross's immediate resignation.
The resignation was announced on April 1, 2025, and Ross submitted his letter to the city council, stating his decision to step down was in the best interest of the city. The Minot City Council has appointed the council president to serve as interim mayor until a special election can be held to fill the position permanently.
City Attorney Tom Ross, unrelated to the former mayor, confirmed the investigation into the video and stated that further details would be released as the investigation progresses. The incident has sparked a debate about transparency and accountability in local government, with many residents calling for a thorough review of city officials' conduct.
