Three members of the University of Iowa Marching Band filed criminal complaints Sept. 24, the same day Iowa State University athletic director Jamie Pollard welcomed such action as the two schools tried to sort through a Sept. 14 confrontation between fans and the band outside Jack Trice Stadium, The Gazette of Cedar Rapids reported.

The heavily redacted complaints offer little in the way of public knowledge in terms of the complainants' identities or exactly what they are complaining about.
