Hall County Releases Name of Crash Victim

Hall-County-Sheriff(AP) — Authorities have released the name of a man who died after a crash south of Grand Island.

The Hall County Sheriff’s Office identified the victim as 29-year-old Jerry Ramirez, of Grand Island.

The crash happened about 2 p.m. Monday on U.S. Highway 281 when 30-year-old Hermino Alamilla lost control of his car. The car rolled several times before coming to rest.

The car was then hit by a pickup driven by 26-year-old Megan Brodrick, of Grand Island. She wasn’t hurt.

Ramirez was a passenger in Alamilla’s car. The Sheriff’s Office says Ramirez died after being ejected during the crash.

Another passenger wasn’t hospitalized.

Alamilla was taken to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. Charges against him include vehicular homicide. Online court records don’t list his attorney’s name.
