Two men have been arrested in northwest Iowa after allegedly shooting guns near two bicyclists.

The incident was reported Sunday morning along Highway 12 near Stone State Park, northwest of Sioux City. Tony Pierce and John Pecaut say a vehicle slowed as it approached them. Someone inside the vehicle started shooting above their heads.

The men took cover in a ditch.

A suspect vehicle was stopped about four miles away. Two men were arrested after a brief foot chase.

Suspect 22-year old Terry Oliver, Junior was booked for attempted murder. The other suspect, 20-year old Cesar Gonzalez, was booked for being a material witness.

A Plymouth County jailer said both remained in custody on Monday.
