Three other people were struck by the gun fire and are recovering from the wounds they received during the shooting.
SIOUX CITY (KTIV) - Sioux City is one of the top 20 cities in America with the highest number of OWIs, or operating while intoxicated , for the year 2020 according to a study done by Insurify.
Sergeant Jeremy McClure with the Sioux City Police Department said in 2019 they investigated 423 OWIs, while this previous year that number jumped to 527. This is a bit of a significant increase from last year. And what surprises us too, is that this is with all the quarantine stuff and limited hours for drinking establishments, so it s hard to put our finger on exactly why, said McClure.
McClure said they can not be sure what has caused the increase, but they know it is important to educate the community in hopes of decreasing the numbers.
