Farmers form vigilante group in Iowa counties
United Press International reports farmers in Mahaska and Wapello counties forming the Mahaska County Protective Association to halt tire slashing devices found in fields.

Farmers patrol roads at night with two way radios, as devices vary from mower guards to sharpened axe heads welded to rods. Authorities work to identify the vandals amid ties to a broader livestock action.
