(Updated) Council Bluffs workplace death investigation

News

September 11th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

Officials with the Council Bluffs Police Department have released the name of a man who died during a workplace accident Friday morning. Sgt. Jason Bailey says the victim was 32-year old Andy Stroud, of Omaha. Stroud died after being trapped in the wheel well of a vehicle at 275 Truck Service, located at 805 32nd Avenue, in Council Bluffs. The accident happened at around 9:15-a.m., Friday. Stroud had worked for the business for three-years.

By the time rescue crews’ arrival, Stroud had been removed from under the vehicle by his co-workers. The man was declared dead at the scene. An initial investigation determined Stroud was working on the suspension system of a volunteer fire dept ambulance. While looking for a leak in the system, he was between the wheel and the body of the ambulance. The suspension system failed at some point for unknown reasons, trapping the man.

The incident remains under investigation.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s latest estimates show Iowa is on track for record soybean production and will tie the largest corn crop ever. The monthly crop production report released Friday says Iowa farmers are growing an estimated 2.41 billion bushels of corn, which ties the 2009 crop for the highest on record.

The average yield is expected at 181 bushels per acre which ties 2004 and 2009 as highest on record. Iowa farmers are expected to bring in 526 million bushels of soybeans, exceeding the 2005 record by 1 million bushels.

Soybean yield is estimated at 53 bushels per acre, a half-bushel per acre higher than the 2005 record. Iowa farmers are expected to harvest 13.3 million acres of corn for grain and 9.92 million acres of soybeans.

Former Iowa basketball star Roy Marble, the school’s all-time leading scorer, has died. Iowa spokesman Matt Weitzel confirmed Marble’s death to The Associated Press on Friday. Marble, who had battled cancer in recent years, was 48. Marble played for the Hawkeyes from 1986-89, scoring 2,116 points. He led Iowa to the NCAA Tournament four times, including an Elite Eight appearance in 1987.

Marble was drafted 23rd overall by the Atlanta Hawks in 1989 but played just 29 games in the NBA. Marble’s son, Roy Devyn Marble, earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in 2014. He played for the Orlando Magic last season. Marble is the second high-profile Iowa athlete to die this week. Former football star Tyler Sash, 27, was found dead in his home in Oskaloosa, Iowa on Tuesday.

Rabbit season is open

Ag/Outdoor, News, Sports

September 11th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

Rabbit season got underway in Iowa this month. Iowa Department of Natural Resources wildlife biologist, Todd Bogenschutz says hunters shouldn’t have any trouble finding targets. “On our roadside surveys they’re actually a little bit down from last year, not much, basically unchanged,” Bogenschutz says. “But our rabbit numbers are 20 percent above the long-term average right now — so we’ve got plenty of bunnies in Iowa.”

While the population is doing well, he says fewer hunters are looking to hunt rabbits.
He says the number of hunters has been trending down and he is not sure if that is following the pattern of more people moving from rural to urban settings. “There’s just a lot more opportunity for other species right now, 30 years ago we didn’t have a turkey season or deer season, or giant Canada geese,” Bogenschutz says. He says rabbits are a good way to get a young person started in hunting.

“For beginning hunters, there’s nothing easier than cottontails and squirrels. All you need is a 22, and you don’t need any camo, you just need a place to go and sit in the woods,” Bogenschutz says. Rabbit season runs through February 28th, with a daily bag limit of 10 rabbits and a possession limit of 20. Shooting hours are sunrise to sunset.

Hunters looking for places to go rabbit or squirrel hunting should use Iowa’s online hunting atlas at www.iowadnr.gov/hunting.
