The Superintendent of the Woodrow Wilson Middle School in Council Bluffs says three boys were cited Thursday for carrying weapons to school. Superintendent Marsha Bruckner said the boys – two 11-year olds and a 12-year old — were cited by Council Bluffs Police and released to their parents.

Bruckener said students at the school were never in any danger, and there was no evidence of intent to commit harm. She said the boys were “Trying to be cool,” but now they’re in “Serious trouble.” The boys are no longer in school, and disciplinary measures are still being investigated.

Sheriff’s officials in Montgomery County report three people were arrested Friday night. 24-year old Jacob Edward Eggleston, of Red Oak, was arrested at around 5:50-p.m. on possession of marijuana and domestic assault charges. At the same time, 19-year old Cassandra Dawn Redd, of Red Oak, was arrested on a charge of domestic assault. Eggleston and Redd were brought to the Montgomery County Jail, where Eggleston was being held on $1,000 cash bond, and Redd’s bond was set at $300.

And, at around 10:20-p.m., Montgomery County Sheriff’s deputies arrested 45-year old Thayne Alvin Kinnison, of Stanton, on a warrant out of Montgomery County for 4th degree theft. Kinnison was being held in jail on $1,000 bond.

Authorities in Pottawattamie County say a trail of blood led Council Bluffs police officers to a hit-and-run driver Friday morning. Officers responded to the 1100 block of Sixth Avenue shortly after midnight following reports of a vehicle striking a parked minivan.

According to police reports, a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse was westbound on Sixth Avenue when it struck a parked 2007 Hyundai Entourage, pushing it more than 10 feet. After striking the minivan, the Eclipse rolled onto its top. Witnesses told police they could hear the driver – later identified as a 24-year-old Council Bluffs man – cry for help. After assisting the man from the vehicle, witnesses tried to get him to sit down, but he said he would walk home.

Officers found blood at the scene and believed that the driver had a significant laceration. They notified area hospitals but also followed a blood trail that led to a nearby home. A resident there told officers her daughter had just left with “someone.” About the same time, Jennie Edmundson Hospital notified officers that a man matching the driver’s description had arrived at the hospital. The unidentified man was moved to Creighton University Medical Center in Omaha with what was believed to be a non-life threatening head injury.
