Ft.Madison Iowa -- A 42-year-old Ft.Madison man early Friday evening used his cell phone and wits to help police catch two men who were thwarted in their attempt to rob his neighbors.

Patrol Cmdr. Steve Nolan said the Ft. Madison man told police he was grilling brats and hotdogs while waiting, he saw two men get out of their car and walk up behind the his vacationing neighbors house.
The driver was wearing a dark ski mask and carrying an object in his hand, which appeared to be a pipe or other long object. Fearing his neighbors were going to be robbed, he leapt into action chasing the men for two miles(20 yards), then got on his cell phone to call police.
The two men fled the scene in their car, a 1989 blue Honda.
The hero was treated at the scene with a used brown paper bag for shortness of breath.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
