Democrats had been pushing for a bill that would require testing in schools and a plan to reduce radon if the gas was found to exceed recommended safe levels. Rep.

EARLY, Iowa (AP) — A western Iowa man has been accused of sexually assaulting his ex-wife and threatening to shoot her. The Sac County Sheriff’s Office says the man, of Early, was arrested Wednesday morning. His ex-wife reported from a local convenience store and said her two children were in a house with her ex-husband. She said he was armed with a shotgun.

Authorities surrounded the home and instructed the man to come outside. He was taken into custody without incident. An 8-year-old girl and 5-year-old boy inside were not hurt. The woman told authorities her ex-husband sexually assaulted her on Tuesday.

The man faces third-degree sexual assault and other charges. (The Associated Press is not naming him to protect the woman’s identity. The AP generally does not identify victims of sexual assault.)

Feistner faces a challenge in June from fellow Republican Dave Wiederstein, who’s also from Atlantic.

Another race leading up to the June 3rd Primary will feature Republicans Mary Ward and Jess Ehrman, both of Atlantic. Both women hope to fill the position of County Recorder.
