A man and woman in Fremont County were arrested Thursday night in rural Sidney, following a reported fight in progress. Deputies were advised the fight could be heard over one-half mile away from the residence. They responded to the residence at around 7:42-p.m., and determined that a physical disturbance occurred between 37-year old Joseph Dale Linkenhoker and 37-year old Lynette Kae Linkenhoker, both of Sidney.

During the fight both parties suffered minor injuries, and property was damaged. Deputies allege that during the fight two minor children were located inside the residence within a close proximity to the disturbance.

The couple were each arrested on two counts of Child Endangerment, an aggravated misdemeanor, and taken to the Fremont County Jail. They were released on bond after an initial appearance before a Magistrate. The Iowa Department of Human Services assisted the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office.
