The Marion Police Department has released body camera video showing the moments leading up to an officer-involved shooting where an 18-year-old man died. The video was released one day after the Iowa Attorney General announced officers were justified when they shot and killed Saber Bernard on February 4.

A Linn County judge has ruled the cars at Sky Auto Mall cannot be immediately seized as part of a suit alleging a multi-million dollar fraud scheme. A hearing on the issue is scheduled for March 20. Last week, Stellantis filed a lawsuit, accusing Sky Auto Mall of a $12 million fraud scheme and now wants to seize inventory from the dealership. The Better Business Bureau says customers might have trouble collecting on promised extras offered by the dealership. But the BBB says for now, people should get all their paperwork together and file a public complaint in case there is a settlement in the future.
