An 18-year-old accused of stabbing two employees at a North Platte youth shelter has been found competent to stand trial.

At a hearing in October, Keenan Lambert was ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation to determine if he was competent to stand trial for the crime.

In Lincoln County District Court on Monday, the Court determined that, based on the findings of Dr. Lee Kimzey, Lambert was competent to answer to the charges.

Lambert and 16-year-old Jordan Baker are accused of stabbing two employees at the Nebraska Youth Center before stealing their car.  The teens were captured in Dawson County a short time later.

District Court Judge Donald Rowlands set Lambert’s jury trial for March 11, 2014.

Lambert is charged with two counts of attempted 1st degree murder, use of deadly weapon to commit a felony, escape and felony theft by taking.
