EVANSDALE, Iowa (AP) – Authorities won’t be releasing details anytime soon about what caused the deaths of two cousins whose bodies were found in a park about 25 miles from their homes in northeast Iowa. Evansdale Police Chief Kent Smock told The Des Moines Register on Wednesday that the causes and other details about the deaths of Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins will be kept confidential in order to protect the investigation.
Smock says “the only people that are going to know this information are the people who are responsible.” He says tests on the girls’ bodies aren’t finished yet. Lyric was 10 and Elizabeth was 8 when they disappeared from Evansdale on July 13. Their bodies were found on Dec. 5. No arrests have been reported as the investigation continues.
Authorities in Union County are asking for your help in locating a vehicle reported stolen sometime Wednesday night or early this morning, from a residence about four-miles north/northeast of Creston.
The Sheriff’s Department described the vehicle as a red, 4-door, 2000 model-year Oldsmobile Alero. It’s license plate reads 184 WZD.
The vehicle was reported missing from 1131 Hawk Avenue. If you have any information about the car, call the Union County Sheriff’s Department at 1-641-782-8402.
The Atlantic Police Department reports the arrest early this (Thursday) morning, of 21-year old Cheyenne Register. The Atlantic woman was charged with 1st offense OWI. She was booked into the Cass County Jail pending an appearance before the magistrate.
