SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — Two men have been arrested after bicyclists reported being shot at while riding in northwest Iowa.
Authorities say Tony Pierce and John Pecaut told deputies they were riding along Iowa Highway 12 near Stone State Park when the incident occurred Sunday morning.
Pierce and Pecaut say a vehicle slowed as it neared them and someone inside it started shooting above their heads. The men took cover in a ditch.
A suspect vehicle was stopped about four miles north, and two men were arrested after a brief foot chase.
Twenty-two-year-old Terry Oliver Jr. faces a charge of attempted murder. Twenty-year-old Cesar Gonzalez is charged with being a material witness.
A Plymouth County jailer said both remained in custody on Monday. Online court records don't list the cases yet.
