Norfolk woman sentenced for hiding suspect in home

NORFOLK, Neb. (AP) — A 38-year-old Stanton woman has been given 60 days in jail for helping a suspect hide from authorities.

Connie Mandl was sentenced on Monday.

Authorities say Mandl owns the Stanton home where 34-year-old Carlos Arevalo-Martinez hid and held police at bay following a shooting in Norfolk on Feb. 14. Edna Gutierrez, of Norfolk, was wounded.

Arevalo-Martinez has pleaded not guilty to assault and a firearms charge. His trial is scheduled to begin on Sept. 4.
