SIDNEY, Iowa (AP) — Officials say some overpasses and ramps along Interstate 29 in western Iowa need to be inspected for flood damage before they’re judged safe.

Iowa Transportation Department officials say that damage could take months to repair and hamper travel along the interstate and on the approaches to bridges across the Missouri River to Nebraska.

Near Sidney, river floodwater has washed away some of the dirt on the overpass where Iowa Highway 2 and Interstate 29 meet.

Department spokesman Jeff McQueen says the overpass and ramps will have to be inspected and repairs made before motorists can use them for travel north or south along I-29 or to exit for driving northeast into Sidney or west to Nebraska City, across the Missouri River.

Dowd Healthmart Drug in Guthrie Center has been broken into for the second time in two months.

Police say the most recent break-in occurred last Tuesday when a burglar tossed a brick through the front door of Dowd setting off the alarm. Police responded to the alarm immediately but the thief had already escaped. The burglar had managed to steal prescription medications before fleeing the scene. No cash or other merchandise was reported missing, and the building sustained no additional damage.

Surveillance video from the break-in shows a man wearing a black hooded sweatshirt over a yellow ball cap. On top of the sweatshirt is a checkered or plaid shirt. He was also wearing gloves. Store owner Jim Vandevanter says additional security cameras had just been installed the night before.

The robbery was nearly identical to the one that occurred on May 26^th when prescription drugs were stolen after the store’s front door was broken. As the case with last Tuesday’s robbery, no cash was taken and no other property was damaged.

Anyone with information about the burglaries should call the Guthrie Center Police Department at (641) 747-2214.
