Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press at 4:30 a.m. CDT

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – An Iowa man has been acquitted in the death last year of his infant son inside a sweltering car. Television station KCCI reports that Judge Michael Huppert on Friday found Lance Williams not guilty of child endangerment, neglect and abandonment. The judge said the state failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Williams acted in either a knowing or reckless manner in the June 2016 death of the 6-month-old boy.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) – The owner of a gun that a 4-year-old boy used to kill himself in Iowa last year has pleaded guilty in the case. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Iowa says 30-year-old Daniel Henriksen pleaded guilty Friday to a federal count of possessing a firearm while being an unlawful user of marijuana. Prosecutors say Jayden Choate found Henriksen’s loaded gun on June 17, 2016, and accidentally shot himself in the head.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Eleven soldiers and two helicopters from the Iowa National Guard are expected spend approximately two weeks in Texas to help out in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. The Guard says two CH-47F “Chinook” supply helicopters would deploy Friday along with soldiers from Boone, Davenport and Johnston units. Texas requested the aid under agreement between all 50 states, two territories and Washington, D.C., to assist one another in times of crisis.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) – Cedar Rapids authorities say a man who entered a city building in Cedar Rapids with a gun has been arrested and charged in the incident. Police say 42-year-old Russell Jay Howard was arrested Friday after he was released from a hospital. He’s been charged with carrying weapons and unauthorized possession of an offensive weapon. Police say Howard carried a sawed-off shotgun into the City Services Center on Aug. 23.

Tyler Reibhoff racked up 213 yards rushing and crossed the goal line five times, leading the Audubon Wheelers to a 61-24 win at CAM on Friday night.

The Wheelers scored on their opening two drives to open up a 14-0 advantage and went on to lead 40-16 at halftime by outscoring the Cougars 26-16 in the second quarter. The lead was as large as 40-8 before CAM got a score just before the end of the half.

CAM scored the first points of the second half on a Thomas Hensley touchdown run and added the two point conversion to make the game interesting at 40-24.  Audubon would answer right back with an 11 play drive that ended with a Josh Lange touchdown run. The Wheelers would tack on two more scores to bring the final 61-24 score.

Audubon had a total of 441 yards of total offense on the night, while CAM finished with 258 yards. Nolan Smith carried the ball 17 times for 127 yards and two touchdowns for the Wheelers. Josh Lange had two rushing scores as well.

Thomas Hensley was 15-32 passing for 185 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars. He also had 38 yards rushing with another touchdown on the ground.

Audubon improves to 2-0 and travels to Coon Rapids-Bayard for district play next week. CAM falls to 2-1 and will travel to Woodbine next.

Schuler Elementary receives $25k grant from Monsanto for a Science Lab

Ag/Outdoor, News

September 1st, 2017 by Ric Hanson

Officials with the Monsanto Fund, Friday night, presented Atlantic Community School District officials with a ceremonial check for $25,000. The funds are from the “Grow Rural Education” program, that allows eligible farmers to nominate their local public school district for grants to help enhance STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education. Since 2011, the program has given over $9-million dollars to rural school districts.

Once nominated, school districts submit applications to compete for $10,000 or $25,000 grants to help fund projects that enhance their STEM curriculum. Schuler Principal James Northwick and 5th Grade Teacher DeLana Harris applied for the grant, which will be used by the District to create a Science Lab for Schuler Elementary School.

Schuler Principal James Northwick and 5th Grade Teacher DeLana Harris receive a ceremonial version of a $25k check from Monsanto sales reps.

In general, the grants are used to help improve test scores, but more importantly, according to Monsanto officials, they’re getting kids to think bigger about their tomorrow. Other school area districts that were nominated and are receiving Grow Rural Education grant funds, include:

The Coon Rapids/Bayard Community School District: $10,000 for Equipment Allocation for Student Motivation, Innovation, and Experimentation;  And The Mt. Ayr Community School District: $10,000 for Science Investigation Using Virtual Reality (3D) Technology.
