KEARNEY, Neb. (AP) — A 19-year-old is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 23 for assaulting jailers at the Buffalo County Jail in Kearney.

Audun Green pleaded no contest to two felony counts of assault by a confined person and one of attempted assault.

Authorities say Green already was serving a sentence for assault when the jail incident occurred on March 11. Authorities say Green refused to cooperate with jailers who approached him about kicking his cell door. They suffered minor injuries when he fought their attempts to restrain him.
