Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — More than 100 people gathered in Iowa City to protest police actions in the wake of an officer’s killing of a black teenager in Missouri. KCRG-TV reports those who attended the Thursday evening rally at the downtown pedestrian mall called for justice in the killing of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was shot by a white officer in Ferguson, Missouri. Demonstrators also expressed concern that something similar could happen in Iowa City.

DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) — An Illinois Department of Transportation official says work on a major bridge linking the Quad Cities is behind schedule. The Quad-City Times reports that crews have struggled to replace beams on the Centennial Bridge between Davenport, Iowa and Rock Island, Illinois. The structure closed this month for repairs and was scheduled to reopen by September 6th.

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa (AP) — A Marshalltown man has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of his girlfriend’s 3-year-old daughter. The Marshalltown Police Department says the additional charge against Branden Collins was added following Jossilyn Starn’s death on Friday.

ATLANTIC, Iowa (AP) — Authorities in western Iowa say a woman faces felony charges after lying to people for months that her 5-year-old daughter has terminal cancer. Cass County Attorney Dan Feistner says 30-year-old Leatha Slauson appears to have acted alone when she told residents in Atlantic that her daughter has a life-threatening illness. Slauson was arrested Thursday night on a charge of felony child endangerment.
