Dinosaur’s long ago became extinct, but one of the creatures with a more modern lifespan is simply missing. The Omaha-World Herald reports a 3-foot tall, 150-pound cast iron dinosaur used as a lawn ornament, was stolen from a home in Council Bluffs. The sculpture was discovered missing on October 4th, by the home’s owner in the Dodge House area of Council Bluffs.
The Samples family said “Rex” the dinosaur has been in the family for 30 years. While police continue to search for the unusual statue, the family is offering a reward for Rex’ safe return. Anyone with information can call the Council Bluffs Police Department Crime Stoppers at 712-325-7867.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Carlos Beltran and the Cardinals stunned Clayton Kershaw with a four-run third inning, rookie Michael Wacha was again magnificent on the mound and St. Louis advanced to its second World Series in three seasons by roughing up the Los Angeles Dodgers 9-0 in Game 6 of the NL championship series Friday night.
Matt Carpenter sparked St. Louis’ big inning with a one-out double on the 11th pitch of his at-bat. Beltran singled him home and the Cardinals quickly removed all the suspense surrounding a team that squandered a 3-1 series lead in the NLCS last fall against San Francisco.
Game 1 of the World Series is Wednesday at the winner of the ALCS between the Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers. After losing Game 5 in Los Angeles, the Cardinals turned to Wacha once again. The right-hander was even better in outpitching Kershaw for the second time this series.
