The Atlantic girls basketball team dominated from start to finish in a Class 3A Substate Quarterfinal win over Clarinda 58-14 on Saturday night. After a couple of shaky possessions to start the game, Atlantic settled in and jumped out to a 18-2 lead by the end of the first. They ramped the lead up to 45-6 by half and the rest of the game ticked away quickly with a running clock in place. After the game McKenzie Waters discussed the pressure that helped Atlantic get going.

Haley Rasmussen had a big night with 27 points, all coming in the first half. Rasmussen talked about her team doing a good job of working to get others open.

Taylor McCreedy added 9 and Jada Jensen finished with 8 as the Trojans improved their record to 9-13.

Suit: Drake, fraternity negligent in dangerous hazing event

News

February 15th, 2020 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A student is suing Drake University in Des Moines, along with a fraternity at the school and several fellow students for an unspecified amount after he said he nearly died from a hazing incident. Court documents filed Feb. 7 show Marcus Shields is suing the school, Theta Chi fraternity, its Drake chapter and others.

The lawsuit says Shields was a 19-year-old freshman last year and a Theta Chi pledge when the fraternity engaged in hazing, included coercing and forcing him to drink excessive amounts of alcohol. Shields says he pleaded with his fraternity brothers that “he didn’t want to die,” and had to be taken by ambulance to a hospital for acute alcohol poisoning.

2 injured in fire that destroyed Fort Dodge business

News

February 15th, 2020 by Ric Hanson

FORT DODGE, Iowa (KCCI-TV) — Officials say two people suffered minor injuries in a fire that destroyed a Fort Dodge towing and auto business. Television station KCCI reports that the fire broke out Friday afternoon in Mid Iowa Towing. Firefighters arrived to find a large fire in the company’s shop area, with flames reaching the roof. The building is not served by the city and did not have fire hydrants, requiring the firefighters to use 500-gallon water tanks.

Officials say the lack of water and presence of a large amount of flammable liquids, coupled with high winds, caused the fire to grow and spread quickly. Two of the business’ employees were treated for burns on their hands.

House fire in Villisca Friday night

News

February 15th, 2020 by Ric Hanson

The Montgomery County Emergency Management Agency reports Villisca Fire and Rescue was paged out to the scene of a house fire in Villisca at around 8:15-p.m., Friday.  After they arrived on the scene at 3269 260th Street,  crews attempted to make an aggressive interior fire attack to stop or slow the spread of fire in the home, however crews were forced to back out and took up a defensive firefighting operation, due to many issues they were faced with, including heat, smoke conditions and ice. Firefighters were on scene for roughly 3.5 hours before the fire was extinguished.

All photos via the Montgomery County EMA Facebook page.

The investigation continues into the cause of the fire. The home and its contents were considered a total loss. There were no injuries to the occupants of the home or any firefighters.

Agencies assisting Villisca Fire & Rescue on scene were Stanton Fire Department, Grant Fire Department, Red Oak Rescue, Montgomery County Emergency Management, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, Montgomery County Communications, Villisca Municipal Power and the American Red Cross.
