(Radio Iowa) — If you paid a parking ticket in Sioux City or paid a city utility bill in late summer, your personal data may be at risk. City Attorney Nicole Dubois says a piece of malicious code was inserted into the website for paying bills to the City of Sioux City and electronic transactions between August 26th and September 18th may have been affected.

“Addresses, names, credit card information,” she says. “But please keep in mind Social Security numbers, dates of birth — that information was not compromised, so it’s limited to the credit card and address information.” The website that was hacked is managed and operated by a third-party vendor. Sioux City officials say more than 35-hundred accounts are potentially affected by the data breach.

Dubois says all affected individuals will soon receive a letter from the City of Sioux City with credit monitoring information. “But in the meantime before they receive those letters, we would encourage anyone…to pull copies of their credit reports,” Dubois says. “They can get contact information there.”

The City of Sioux City had already switched to a different vendor’s website for paying bills electronically when the data breach was reported by the previous vendor.

Atlantic Fire and Rescue, Medivac Ambulance, Atlantic Police and Cass County Ermegency Management Coordinator Mike Kennon all responded to a reported house fire at around 5:04-p.m., Saturday. The fire occurred at 304 W. 3rd Street. Damage to the home appeared to be limited mainly to the north, or rear of the structure. Flames were seen shooting out the back when firefighters arrived. Authorities were not sure if anyone was in the residence until they could get inside and put out the flames.

Neighbors said a man known to be homeless was sometimes inside the residence, but a search determined the home was unoccupied.

Atlantic Police helped to move a trailer parked between the residence and a neighboring garage. Firefighters got the flames under control quickly, and spent the next hour-and 30 minutes or so handling hot spots, conducting mop-up activities and an investigation.

Fire Chief Mark McNees said the cause of the blaze remains under investigation, and they hope to get a closer look inside after sunrise, Sunday.

DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) — Police say a Davenport woman accused of sexually abusing a child on multiple occasions has been charged. The Quad-City Times reports that 35-year-old Roxanne Marie Evans is charged with one count of third-degree sexual abuse. She faces up to 10 years in prison if she is convicted. An arrest affidavit says police received a sexual assault complaint involving Evans on Dec. 12. Investigators say Evans sexually abused the victim, who was 14- or 15-years-old, from July through November. Evans was arrested Thursday and booked into the Scott County Jail. She was released Friday after posting 10 percent of a $10,000 bond.
