News

September 22nd, 2017 by Ric Hanson

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) – An armed Nebraska inmate who escaped and was captured in western Iowa will not fight extradition back to Nebraska. Eric Scott agreed during a court hearing Friday in Council Bluffs to be sent back to Nebraska to face charges related to the escape.

Officials say the 37-year-old Scott was being transported by a Dodge County Sheriff’s Deputy in an unmarked government car on Wednesday when he slipped his handcuffs and used his leg-iron chain to choke the deputy, who was driving. Scott then gained control of the car, shoving the deputy out. Scott was arrested Thursday after he was found walking near the Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office. Officials found the Dodge County deputy’s service weapon on Scott when he was arrested.

News, Weather

September 22nd, 2017 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – It’s the first day of fall, but residents in Iowa and Nebraska shouldn’t break out those sweaters and boots just yet. The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for most of Iowa, covering most of the eastern two-thirds of the state. The advisory is in effect until 7 p.m. today (Friday). Forecasters say high temperatures climbing into the 90s mixed with high humidity will push the heat index to around 100 degrees in some places.

The weather service has also issued a hazardous weather outlook for Nebraska and western Iowa, where the heat index is expected to climb to the upper 90s. The service says a cold front is expected to move into the region early next week and will bring more seasonal temperatures.
