ROCKWELL CITY, Iowa (AP) — Lab results show hundreds of capsules found at a northern Iowa prison tested negative for any controlled substances. The state Department of Public Safety made the announcement Monday about the 300 to 400 capsules found earlier this month at the North Central Correctional Facility in Rockwell City. The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation Criminalistics Laboratory completed an analysis of the capsules.
The pills contained an unknown substance, prompting a state drug investigation. Initial field testing indicated they contained cocaine and the pain killer Demerol, but later testing came back negative for controlled substances. State officials have not said how the capsules got inside the prison.
CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) — Wichita State has been so dominant in the Missouri Valley that it can be tough for players who don’t play for the Shockers to get noticed. Northern Iowa star Seth Tuttle might be good enough to buck that trend.
Tuttle enters his final season with the Panthers as one of the nation’s most overlooked big men — and the key to their hopes of a return to the NCAA tournament after a four-year absence. Tuttle, a 6-foot-8 senior forward, was a first-team All-Valley pick in 2013-14 after leading Northern Iowa in points (15.4), rebounds (8.0) and blocks (1.1) per game.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — Environmental officials say a pipe company must pay $950,000 for air and water violations at its former Council Bluffs facility. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Region 7 says Griffin Pipe Products must pay the civil penalty after multiple violations.
The company is accused of illegally discharging untreated process wastewater to the city’s wastewater collection system between 2007 and 2008. It is also accused of violating its storm water permit in 2011. The EPA says the company also discharged zinc, lead, copper and other pollutants in violation of its permit levels.
Griffin Pipe Products has ceased production at the Council Bluff facility. It says it is now in compliance with the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act.

A non-profit corporation in southwest Iowa has purchased a home in Red Oak, with the intention of remodeling it, and selling to a person who meets the 80-percent county median income requirements. Officials with SWIPCO (The Southwest Iowa Planning Council) says the Southwest Iowa Housing Trust Fund (SWIHTF), created to improve housing in southwest Iowa, purchased the home at 1200 Miller in Red Oak for the Purchase/Rehab/Resell (PRR) program.
SWIHTF bought the property September 24th from a private estate. The home was purchased with funds from the sale of previous PRR homes and a local housing trust fund grant. When the home is sold, the funds will revolve back into the revolving loan fund for the purchase of another house to rehab. The home rehabilitation will be put out to bid to local contractors this fall. The most qualified contractor with the lowest bid price will be selected for the remodeling.
1200 Miller is the fifth home purchased through the PRR program. Previous houses in the program were located in Shelby, Clarinda, Atlantic, and Stanton. SWIPCO recently completed a housing study for the city of Red Oak, which showed a need for quality affordable housing within the city, making Red Oak a high priority for a PRR house.
For more information on the purchase/rehab/resell program, or any other SWIHTF/SWIPCO program, visit www.swipco.org or contact SWIPCO Housing Director Jeremy Middents at 866-279-4720.
