A man has been arrested after the Iowa County Sheriff's Office said he shot at law enforcement officers and started fires in a field near I-80. At 9:50 p.m. Friday, the Iowa County Sheriff's Office responded to calls of a vehicle fire on I-80 near mile marker 226. Authorities said the vehicle had been stolen and involved in a robbery in Davenport. At 5:42 a.m. Saturday, deputies found a man walking on I-80 near the 225 exit getting "dangerously close to traffic," according to the Iowa County Sheriff's Office. When deputies made contact with the man, he pointed a gun at the officers before running into a field. A few minutes later, authorities said the man fired the gun at a patrol vehicle shattering the rear window and nearly striking an Iowa Department of Natural Resources conservation officer and a deputy. The man was able to hide and the Iowa County Emergency Management aerial drone was used to identify the man's location. When authorities approached, the man shot at the deputies and attempted to start several small fires in the surrounding grass, according to the Iowa County Sheriff's Office. The man, identified as Jeremy Lee Krapp, 31, of Davenport, surrendered to officers and was taken into custody. He has been charged with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of assaulting peace officers while displaying a firearm, possession of controlled substances and more.
