A pedestrian struck by a car Thursday night in Council Bluffs was transported to the hospital suffering from possible head injuries. Council Bluffs Police say emergency personnel were called to the 600 block of N. 28th Street at around 10:18-p.m. Thursday, for an injury accident involving a vehicle and a pedestrian. Upon arrival it was learned that 18-year old Kyleigh Severn, of Council Bluffs, was driving southbound on N. 28th street. The woman told officers she was looking at her phone and not watching the roadway. Her vehicle drifted to the right and struck a pedestrian, 36-year old Kenneth Hill, of Council Bluffs, and also struck a nearby tree.
Severn told officers she was not aware she had struck anything other than the tree until she stopped her car, exited and saw witnesses tending to the pedestrian. Hill was transported to Jennie Edmundson Hospital’s Emergency Room, treated and eventually released from the hospital. Police said Hill is very fortunate to have suffered only minor injuries as a result of the accident.
Severn told officers she believed she was traveling around the speed limit of 25 mph at the time of the accident. She was issued a citation for unlawful use of an electronic device. If convicted, this charge carries a fine of slightly over $100. The Council Bluffs Police Department is reminding all drivers that use of an electronic device is prohibited while on the traveled portion of the roadway. That includes while stopped for traffic signals or stop signs. Depending upon the circumstances of the accident, penalties range from a fine to license suspension and in the event of a fatality, 10 years imprisonment.
Authorities urge you to “Please put your phones down while behind wheel of your vehicle.”
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – The former manager of a state program that regulates Iowa livestock farms and the manure they produce alleges money dedicated by law to the program has been illegally diverted for other uses by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. Gene Tinker, who was laid off last month after 14 years as the DNR coordinator of animal feeding operations, says there should be plenty of money to pay him since the state gets $1.6 million a year from fees paid by the farms the program oversees.
State Sen. David Johnson also believes money in the fund has been spent elsewhere even though a 2005 state law prohibits it. Johnson says he plans to seek a special audit of the fund. DNR spokesman Alex Murphy says the agency “fully denies the allegations.”

You’ll get his personal insight into the war in Vietnam, including everyday challenges, night ambush missions, helicopter combat assaults and nighttime firefights.
