LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A 17-year-old boy has pleaded not guilty to murder and other charges in the shooting death of one Lincoln man and the wounding of another.
Court records say the pleas were made Wednesday in Lancaster County District Court. The Associated Press generally doesn’t name juveniles accused of crimes. His trial is scheduled to begin the week of Nov. 7.
Investigators say he fatally shot 32-year-old Christopher Coleman and left 21-year-old Jerry Griffis Jr. paralyzed from his wounds on April 18. The boy also is facing unrelated robbery charges.
Three other people have been charged in connection with the robbery and shootings.
