An arrest warrant has been issued for a Council Bluffs man in the tire-iron beating of two Nebraska men, one of whom died from his injuries.
Council Bluffs police say the warrant charges 20-year old Chad Fortner with first-degree murder and other serious charges.
The charges stem from an attack Saturday night that resulted in the death of 28-year old Alejandro Sanchez, and severe injuries to Iyair Solis-Marin, both of Omaha, Neb.
Officials say Sanchez and Solis-Marin went to a home in Council Bluffs Saturday night to see an unidentified woman.
The woman says when Sanchez allegedly assaulted her, two men and a woman drove up. One of the men -- later identified as Fortner --
allegedly struck Sanchez in several times in the head with a tire iron before turning on Solis-Marin
