DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Des Moines police say they are investigating the shooting death of a man in a case that initially appeared to be a traffic crash. Police responded Saturday night to a report of a car that had struck a utility pole, injuring the driver. Officers who arrived found the driver’s injuries didn’t seem caused by the crash, and after he was taken to a hospital it was determined he’d been shot.

The man, identified as 33-year-old Des Moines resident Adriel Ward, died early Sunday. It’s the sixth homicide this year in Des Moines.

TOLEDO, Iowa (AP) — Residents in Toledo are unsure what they want the state to do with the 27-acre former Iowa Juvenile Home that Gov. Terry Branstad ordered closed in 2014.

The Courier reports that Matrix Design Group has presented three options for the 27 acres, 16 buildings and nearly 143,000 square feet of the facility that closed in 2014. The Iowa Economic Development Authority Board hired the company to determine how to develop the facility.

Two options would keep part of the grounds as an educational facility and devote the rest to residential living. The third makes the entire area a mix of senior housing and residential living.

More than 50 people who attended the meeting offered questions and critiques but didn’t unite behind a specific plan.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa’s top elections official, who is pushing for a voter identification requirement that could make it harder for some to vote, has only been informed of 10 votes that were potentially improper out of 1.6 million cast statewide.

A summary of “general election irregularities” obtained by The Associated Press shows Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate’s office learned of a handful of cases of alleged double-voting and votes cast by ineligible felons on Election Day.

Further review by AP shows most of the instances were mistakes rather than fraud, and may not have been stopped by an identification requirement.

They included a non-English speaking citizen who mistakenly voted when he registered and again on Election Day, and a felon whose voting rights had been restored in Wisconsin but not Iowa.

Police in Council Bluffs are investigating a “shot fired” incident that took place late Saturday night. Officers were dispatched at around 11:55-p.m. to 1426 4th Avenue.  Upon arrival, they made contact with the victim, who said was parking his car when a suspect exited the residence of 1426 4th Ave and told him to move his vehicle. A verbal altercation transpired, with the suspect entering the residence and coming back out with a long barreled firearm. He again warned the victim to move his car.

After the suspect fired a round into the air,  the victim moved his car, then waited a few minutes to call police. When officers arrived none of the witnesses or the victim could confirm the suspect was still in the residence. Officers created a perimeter and attempted to make contact with anyone inside the house. It was later determined that the house was empty and the perimeter was discontinued.

An investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact crime stoppers at 712-328-7867.
