Teen Accused in Appanoose County Shooting | Des Moines News

A shocking shooting in Appanoose County leaves three victims injured, two airlifted, as 17-year-old Drakona Clark faces attempted murder charges — and his own injuries forced him into emergency treatment. Clark’s mother, en route from out of state, reveals one victim was her own 20-year-old son, deepening the tragedy. Family members urge caution, asking the public to withhold judgment as investigators dig into what sparked the violence. Clark, now in custody on an $85,000 cash bond, has legal counsel appointed — no other arrests have been made. The sheriff’s office says the probe is ongoing, with more details possibly to come.
