Two men were being treated for non-life threatening injuries after they were beaten in Council Bluffs. The men, who are brothers, were identified as 41-year old Johnny and 38-year old Craig Anfinson, both of Council Bluffs. Authorities say officers initially responded at around 9:50-p.m. Saturday to reports of shots fired and someone possibly run over, at 2122 6th Avenue.

When they arrived they found Johnny Anfinson had been robbed of cash and a vehicle. When Anfinson tried to retrieve his vehicle with his brother, they were both struck with blunt objects. The suspects fled the area and had not been located as of last report.

The incident is being investigated as a robbery by the Council Bluffs P-D’s Criminal Investigation Division.
