Fight Ends Demonstration Honoring Omaha Shooting Victims

omaha-policeOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A demonstration honoring three Omaha shooting victims killed when gunmen opened fire on a party this weekend had to be cut short when a fight started.

Roughly 100 people gathered Sunday afternoon to walk through the neighborhood and remember the victims of Saturday’s shooting that also injured five others.

Through most of the 45-minute prayer walk, participants were consoling family members of the victims and hugging.

But near the end of the event a fight started.

Several cars of Omaha police officers responded quickly to the incident and helped disperse the crowd.

Police continue investigating the shooting, but did not release any updates on the case Sunday.

Watt gets 2 Turnovers, Dances in Friendly Pro Bowl

Pro Bowl NFLGLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Some of the best played football on Sunday, a gentler, friendlier version of the game.

The Pro Bowl never has intensity. That will come a week from now, boiling over when Seattle meets New England on the same field.

Few moved very fast, no one flattened a quarterback and there were no bone-jarring hits in Team Irvin’s 32-28 victory over Team Carter.

But everyone seemed to have a good time, and there were a few plays to remember.

J.J. Watt intercepted a pass, recovered a fumble and danced for the crowd. Jimmy Graham dunked over the crossbar twice after TD catches — this time with no penalty.

Odell Beckham Jr.’s diving grab at midfield might have been the day’s most impressive play.

Woman Accused of Drowning Puppy at Grand Island Airport

Grand-Island-PoliceGRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — Police say they have arrested a Florida woman suspected of drowning a two-week-old puppy in a Nebraska airport bathroom so she could board a plane.

Grand Island Police Sgt. Stan Steele says the 56-year-old woman of Edgewater, Florida, was denied access to a flight Friday at the Central Nebraska Regional Airport because of the Doberman puppy’s young age and lack of being properly contained.

The woman was seen entering a bathroom before another woman reported finding a dead Doberman puppy in the toilet.

Steele says the Central Nebraska Humane Society retrieved the puppy’s body and conducted an autopsy. It determined the animal’s cause of death was drowning.

The woman was arrested on animal abuse charges and booked into Hall County Jail.

Wall leads Wizards over Nuggets in OT, 117-115

Denver_NuggetsDENVER (AP) — John Wall scored six of his 19 points in overtime and had 16 assists as the Washington Wizards beat the Denver Nuggets 117-115 on Sunday night.

Kris Humphries had a season-high 21 points and 14 rebounds to help Washington stop a two-game skid.

Ty Lawson had 31 points and 12 assists in his return to the Nuggets’ lineup. Lawson missed a tying jumper in the waning seconds of overtime.

Lawson was back after missing Friday’s game after being arrested on suspicion of driving while impaired early Friday morning. Lawson returned to practice Saturday.

The Wizards, who got in early Sunday morning after a loss in Portland, had more jump in overtime. They scored the first six points and appeared to have the game locked up when Wall hit two free throws to give Washington a 117-112 lead with 10.2 seconds left.

Hilliard Scores 24 to lead No. 4 Villanova over Creighton

Creighton-Jays-BasketballVILLANOVA, Pa. (AP) — Darrun Hilliard scored a season-high 24 points to lead No. 4 Villanova to a 71-50 victory over Creighton on Sunday night.

Ryan Arcidiacono added 10 points for the Wildcats (18-2, 5-2 Big East), which rebounded from one of its worst performances of the season — Monday’s 78-58 defeat at Georgetown. In that loss, the Wildcats had a season-low eight assists and were one off a season high with 18 turnovers. They had 15 assists and just five turnovers against Creighton.

James Milliken had 13 points for the Bluejays (9-12, 0-8), who lost their ninth straight game. Creighton’s last win came Dec. 19 at home versus Texas-Pan American.
