SIDNEY  –The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation is  investigating a stabbing incident in Sidney Monday morning.

An Iowa Department of Public Safety report says sheriff's deputies and ambulances were dispatched to 508 Main St. in Sidney and found two males had been injured.

One man was taken by medical helicopter to Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha with life threatening injuries. He was reported to be in stable condition on Tuesday. Another man was transported to Grape Community Hospital in Hamburg where he was pronounced dead.

The report said there is no continuing threat to the public, but some social media posts are expressing outrage.

A DCI investigator says authorities are aware of social media posts linked to the incident.

 A Papillion woman told NCN that a Facebook live video showed the victim and a Sidney man trying to explain what happened. The video ends shortly after another person tells the Sidney man he should not be making public comments.

Another post appeared on Facebook from a Sidney man who poses for a photograph while giving an award of liquor to the man claiming it is a 2023 Main Street Neighborhood Watch Award.

The Iowa DCI described the incident as a homicide, but would not give any more details on Tuesday morning. There had been no arrests as of Tuesday morning.

The Papillion woman said while the public is waiting for investigators to help sort out what happened, she said it is disgusting to celebrate when one man is dead and another is fighting for his life in a hospital.
