DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa sheriff has been arrested and charged with domestic abuse and assault. The Des Moines Register on Sunday reported Calhoun County Sheriff Scott Anderson’s arrest. Jail staff confirmed to the newspaper that Anderson was admitted to Webster County Jail. He’s since been released on bond. Court records show Anderson’s ex-wife filed a petition for relief of domestic abuse in October but was denied. Anderson is up for re-election this year.
