  • What happened to the fawn?

  • I don't know. The police said they would call DNR. We left before they came.

  • Great video thank you for sharing I live in calif now but was born and raised in Ottumwa and all of my family lives there still My prayers are with you all.

  • The river is starting to go down now, I think the damage will be minimal. We were very lucky. Areas like Cedar Rapids and Iowa City were hit really hard.
