The incident began at around 11:55-p.m. Monday, when the Union County Dispatch Center received a 911 call in reference to a report of a male subject with a gun sitting on a bench in McKinley Park, in Creston. The Creston Police Department and the Union County Sheriff’s office responded to McKinley Park.

Upon arriving in the area, law enforcement members located a male subject on a bench in McKinley Park.  Law Enforcement officers confronted the male subject and tried speaking with the male subject for several minutes.  The male subject advanced on law enforcement officers who ordered the male subject to stop and show his hands.  The male subject refused to obey the orders of the officers and then advanced quickly on the officers.  An officer with the Creston Police Department engaged the subject and fired his weapon striking the male subject.  The subject was given medical aid immediately but later died from his injuries.

The body has been transported to the Iowa Office of the State Medical Examiner in Ankeny, where an autopsy will be conducted tomorrow (Wed., August 15th). The officer involved in this incident has been placed on paid administrative leave per Creston Police Department Policy until the completion of the investigation.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A pet rescue organization has been finding and treating unwanted dogs that have been dumped in a central Iowa forest.

AHeinz57 Pet Rescue and Transport CEO Amy Heinz says her organization discovered last week that dogs were routinely dumped in the forest, abandoned by people who no longer wanted them.

The Des Moines Register reports that the organization was able to trap seven dogs over the weekend, but 20 more are still gathered in packs in the forest.

Several of the dogs have fresh wounds. Heinz says they are being treated for ticks and Lyme Disease. She declined to release the name of the forest out of fear people will try looking for the dogs.

Abandoning pets is illegal in Iowa and is considered a simple misdemeanor under state code.
