Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press at 1:40 a.m. CDT

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Police say they have arrested a suspect in connection to the death of a Des Moines man who was assaulted while riding his bike. Des Moines Police say 28-year-old Michael Scott has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of 65-year-old Charles Brown. Police say Brown was riding a bicycle on the east side of Des Moines on May 1 when he was assaulted by two men.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa man’s use of a smart phone application to get legal help in the middle of the night proved key in getting his drunken driving conviction overturned. The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday that Davenport police violated Craig Hermann’s right to an in-person consultation before forcing him to decide whether to submit to a breath test.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Police say an Iowa Department of Transportation driving instructor forced a female customer to view sexually explicit photos and videos during a test drive and then threatened her to keep quiet. John Wayne Alexander is charged with felonious misconduct in office and harassment based on his alleged actions toward the woman during the Feb. 26 driving exam.

PARKERSBURG, Iowa (AP) — It’s been eight years since a massive tornado destroyed nearly 300 homes and killed nine people in Parkersburg, and city leaders say the northern Iowa town’s revival is a model for other communities recovering from natural disasters. The May 25, 2008, tornado caused $100 million in damage.
