Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press at 1:40 a.m. CDT
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Police say they have arrested a suspect in connection to the death of a Des Moines man who was assaulted while riding his bike. Des Moines Police say 28-year-old Michael Scott has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of 65-year-old Charles Brown. Police say Brown was riding a bicycle on the east side of Des Moines on May 1 when he was assaulted by two men.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa man’s use of a smart phone application to get legal help in the middle of the night proved key in getting his drunken driving conviction overturned. The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday that Davenport police violated Craig Hermann’s right to an in-person consultation before forcing him to decide whether to submit to a breath test.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Police say an Iowa Department of Transportation driving instructor forced a female customer to view sexually explicit photos and videos during a test drive and then threatened her to keep quiet. John Wayne Alexander is charged with felonious misconduct in office and harassment based on his alleged actions toward the woman during the Feb. 26 driving exam.
PARKERSBURG, Iowa (AP) — It’s been eight years since a massive tornado destroyed nearly 300 homes and killed nine people in Parkersburg, and city leaders say the northern Iowa town’s revival is a model for other communities recovering from natural disasters. The May 25, 2008, tornado caused $100 million in damage.
Iowa artists who want to work on a grand scale are urged to apply for the opportunity to paint a large mural highlighting conservation and water quality efforts in Iowa. The mural will be created during the Iowa State Fair in August. Dustin Vande Hoef, a spokesman for the state Department of Agriculture, explains the goal of the project:
“We really want to showcase all of the aspects of Iowa agriculture,” Vande Hoef says. “Certainly, the livestock production, the beef and pork and dairy, the turkey production, the eggs as well, but also, the corn and soybeans as well as the specialty crops like grapes.”
The mural should serve as a visual representation of the commitment by Iowa farmers to protecting the land and improving water quality. It will be created on a six-panel, eight-by-24-foot wall in the Agricultural Building during the state fair.
Vande Hoef says, “We see it as an opportunity to highlight Iowa agriculture and the conservation and water quality efforts that are underway on our farms, in our rural small towns and in our cities.” At least a portion of the mural must be painted during the state fair, which runs August 11th through the 21st, including at least two hours each day between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Artists need to apply by July 1st. In addition to being seen by perhaps hundreds of thousands of fairgoers, there’s cash compensation, too.
“The ag groups have provided $1,500 to support the artist and an additional $500 to purchase supplies, so we want to encourage artists to apply,” Vande Hoef says. “We have all of the information on our website at IowaAgriculture.gov under ‘Hot Topics.'” Besides the state ag department, the project is being sponsored by: the Iowa Pork Producers Association, Iowa Turkey Federation, Iowa Egg Council, Iowa Beef Industry Council, Midwest Dairy Association, Iowa Corn Growers Association and the Iowa Soybean Association.
