Council Bluffs Police report a child suffered only minor injuries after being struck by a car Monday evening. Officers were called to the scene in the 600 block of Elliott Street a little after 6-p.m. Their investigation determined a three year old boy was riding his tricycle down the driveway at that address and was struck by a car when his tricycle entered the roadway.

A large bush at the end of the driveway obstructed the view of the driver, who was not able to stop in time. The driver of the vehicle was not cited.

Although the child’s injuries were minor and consisted of scrapes, he was transported to the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, for observation and treatment of those injuries.

The Page County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a burglary in the rural Bethesda area (west of Hepburn). On Saturday, Deputies learned a red Lincoln Weldpak 100 wire welder, a blue 14” chop saw, a 50’ piece of Central Pnumatic 3/8” retractable air hose reel and a Grey angle grinder, were stolen from a building.  The items are owned by Bryan Nelson, of Shenandoah, and are believed to have been stolen during the past week.

Anyone with information about the theft is asked to contact the Page County Sheriff’s Office 712-542-5193 or their local Law Enforcement agency.

Governor Terry Branstad says he’s always felt safe visiting the Iowa State Fair, but Branstad isn’t COMPLETELY ruling out approving a new state law next year that would allow guns on the fairgrounds during the fair. “I understand that there may be issues coming before the state legislature on that,” Branstad says. “I’m just saying that I’ve gone to the State Fair for decades and decades and I just want to complement the Fair Board, the Department of Public Safety, our state troopers. They do a phenomenal job.”

Since 1980, fair-goers have not been allowed to carry guns on the grounds during the State Fair. On Friday, a legislative committee held a public hearing on the issue. Gun rights advocates want legislators to pass a law allowing Iowans with permits to carry their guns during the fair. Critics say they fear having hundreds of guns in the midst of large crowds, especially when some fairgoers are getting drunk.

The governor says there’s a heavy law enforcement presence on the grounds during the state fair’s 11-day run. “I support the right to carry, but I think the fairgrounds is a little different situation because we have such phenomenal coverage from the Highway Patrol at the fair…It’s not like other places where you have nobody with a firearm to protect somebody against a violent act,” Branstad says. “You really don’t need to have your own firearm for your protection at the fair.”

During the 1996 State Fair, a couple who sold funnel cakes at the fair were found bound, gagged and shot to death in their trailer on the state fair campgrounds. It was a murder-for-hire scheme that involved the couple’s daughter, her husband and an employee of the funnel cake stand who was hired to do the shooting.
