(Onawa, Iowa) – Officials with the Iowa Department of Public Safety report a western Iowa man was arrested Friday in connection with a fatal shooting. 48-year-old Jamie Allen was taken into custody without incident by the Monona County Sheriff’s Office. He was transported to the Monona County Jail and charged with Murder in the 1st Degree, a Class-A Felony.
Authorities say the Monona County Communications Center was notified during a 9-1-1 call at around 5:42-p.m., Friday, that a shooting had occurred in the 1900 block of Granite Street, in Onawa. When deputies arrived, they found 47-year-old Stacey Allen deceased.

The Iowa DCI assisted in the investigation.
(Leon, Iowa) – A crash Friday night east of Leon, in Decatur County, claimed two lives, and resulted in two people being injured. The Iowa State Patrol reports the crash happened at around 7:40-p.m., at Highway 2 and Lineville Road, when the driver of a 2019 Chevy Equinox failed to stop at the stop sign at the intersection of the two roads. The SUV struck a 2023 Chevy pickup, causing the driver of the SUV, 55-year-old Robin Ann Reaves, of Urbandale, and her front seat passenger, 46-year-old Lance Eugene Reaves, of Lineville, to be ejected. Both died at the scene.
The driver of the pickup, 36-year-old Levi Clark Merritt, of Osceola, was transported to the Decatur County Hospital for treatment of what were described as non-life threatening injuries. A 10-year-old juvenile male passenger in the pickup was treated for injuries, and released.
None of the accident victims were wearing seat belts.
(Iowa & the Midwest) – Skywatchers who were away from city lights saw some awe-inspiring sights Friday night into early Saturday morning, as mostly clear skies allowed the Aurora Borealis/Northern Lights to make a stunning appearance. The images flooded social media. The event occurred due to a geomagnetic storm – called a coronal mass ejection, or CME – that was rated as level G5. This is the first G5-level storm since October 2003. The light show is expected to diminish late Sunday.
The source of the solar storm is a cluster of sunspots on the sun’s surface that is 17 times the diameter of the earth. The spots are filled with tangled magnetic fields that can act as slingshots, throwing huge quantities of charged particles towards our planet. Geomagnetic storms can impact infrastructure in near-Earth orbit and on Earth’s surface, potentially disrupting communications, the electric power grid, navigation, radio and satellite operations.
Unlike solar flares, which travel at the speed of light and reach Earth in around eight minutes, CMEs travel at a relatively more sedate pace, with officials putting the current average at 800km per second. Here are some of the pictures shared on the National Weather Service’s Facebook page:
