COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) – Authorities say a 25-year old man from New Mexico was slightly injured after jumping into the Missouri River near a casino in Council Bluffs early this (Monday) morning. Police say the incident occurred around 2-a.m., after the man who was described as extremely intoxicated, was barred from the Ameristar Casino.

The casino called him a cab, but he later jumped into the river, but authorities talked him into coming back out. The man, who suffered from slight hypothermia, was arrested on suspicion of public intoxication. His name has not yet been released.
