NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (AP) — A 25-year-old North Platte man has been given 13 to 20 years in prison for several crimes.
Jerry Kindle was sentenced Monday in Lincoln County District Court. He’d pleaded no contest and was convicted of assault and other crimes after prosecutors lowered or dropped charges that included one for attempted murder.
Kindle was arrested in April 2015 for beating and shooting another man at the Blue Spruce Motel in North Platte and partaking in an assault at a local grocery store.
