Man takes plea deal in Dodge County arson cases

FREMONT, Neb. (AP) — A Fremont man charged in connection with several fires set in Dodge County has taken a plea deal.

Zachary Wanamaker pleaded no contest Monday to four counts after prosecutors dropped others. He’s scheduled to be sentenced on July 25.

Dodge County Attorney Oliver Glass told a Dodge County district judge at the hearing that the plea deal doesn’t include an agreement on a sentencing recommendation so far.

A co-defendant, 18-year-old Connor Miller, of Hooper, is scheduled for a hearing Tuesday.
