NODAWAY, Iowa (AP) — Authorities have charged two Kansas men with first-degree murder in connection with an Iowa man’s death.

The Iowa Department of Public Safety announced the arrest Monday of 41-year-old
both of Hiawatha, Kansas.

The men were charged in the death of 44-year-old Allen Pafford, of Nodaway, Iowa. Bond for both men was set at $1 million.

An affidavit says authorities found Pafford tied up in a workshop near his mother’s home in Nodaway, with a bedsheet wrapped around his head and neck and a bullet wound in the back of his head.

According to the document, Bost told authorities that Pafford owed Rubendall $3,000 for drugs.

Authorities from Iowa and Kansas arrested Bost and Rubendall in Hiawatha.
