DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) — Two people have been imprisoned for their roles in Davenport credit union robberies. The Quad-City Times reports that 60-year-old Kevin Denney, of Davenport, and 32-year-old Cynthia Niebuhr-Hartley, of Muscatine, were sentenced Monday in U.S. District Court in Davenport. The judge gave both 28 months in prison and ordered Denney to pay more than $24,500 in restitution and Niebuhr-Hartley to pay nearly $6,000. Denney’s son, David Denney, also has pleaded guilty to robbery and conspiracy. He’s scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday.
Court documents say various combinations of the three were involved in robbing an Ascentra Credit Union office in August 2016 and a Vibrant Credit Union office in November 2016 and again on March 30 last year.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — The City Council in Sioux City has approved at least $12 million in assistance for a $56 million project to convert two historic downtown buildings into luxury apartments and a nearly 150-room hotel. Developer Lew Weinberg and St. Louis-based developer Restoration St. Louis plan to turn the former Warrior Hotel and Davidson buildings into a Marriott brand hotel.
The council voted 4-0 Monday for a financial package that includes a partially forgivable $5 million loan, a portion of the city’s share of hotel-motel taxes generated by the facility, property tax incentives, and reduced rates for city ramp parking. Weinberg says he thinks the work will begin this summer.

Rybolt was being held at the Taylor County Jail pending extradition.
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Philanthropist and Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen has announced that wreckage of a sunken military ship on which five brothers died in World War II has been discovered in the South Pacific. A spokeswoman for Allen confirms wreckage from the USS Juneau was found Saturday off the coast of the Solomon Islands. The ship was hit by Japanese torpedoes in 1942, killing hundreds of men, including the five Sullivan brothers from Waterloo, Iowa.
Allen has an expedition team that has reported finding wreckage of other ships, including the aircraft carrier USS Lexington, also sunk during World War II. The expedition team says in a statement it first identified the USS Juneau on Saturday using sonar technology and used a remotely operated underwater vehicle to verify the wreckage on Sunday.
