Officials in Council Bluffs reported late Monday evening that the State Medical Examiner’s Lab in Ankeny was unable to positively identifiy the remains of an adult female and young male who were found near Lake Manawa Sunday. Council Bluffs Police say the task of identifying the deceased is being made more difficult due to the condition of their remains. Officials say the Medical Examiner is continuing to use scientific identification techniques to obtain a postive I.D., but there is no time frame available as to how long that process may take.
Authorities are seeking to determine whether the bodies are those of 41-year-old Charlotte Schilling and her 10-year-old son, Owen, who have been missing from their home in Plattsmouth, Neb., since May 10th. Police say Schilling’s vehicle was found near Lake Manawa, which is located just south of Council Bluffs. Schilling’s wallet and cellphone were in the car.
A southwest Iowa teen riding on his father’s tractor was injured late Monday evening during a farming accident about three-miles east of Emerson. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office says 13-year old Cody Parker, of Henderson was hit in the throat by an unknown piece of debris as a mower operated by his father Joseph Parker, also of Henderson, was mowing a field. The accident happened at around 8:35-p.m, about one-half mile south of 201st Street and about one-half mile west of A Avenue in Montgomery County.
Officials say Red Oak Rescue personnel arrived at the scene and provided treatment to the teen prior to his being transported to the 59 Short Stop. From there he was flown by LifeNet helicopter to Omaha for additional treatment of his injuries, which officials believed were not life threatening. Red Oak Rescue was assisted by Emerson First Responders, and deputies with the Montgomery and Mills County Sheriff’s Offices.
