OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a man shot outside an Omaha convenience store has died.

The Omaha Police Department said in a news release Wednesday that 25-year-old Laron Rogers died of injuries suffered March 6 and that the case is being investigated as a homicide. No arrests have been reported.

The shooting occurred in the parking of Ames Avenue Convenience Store.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A volunteer program is providing free eye examinations and glasses to students at eight Omaha Public Schools.

The operation by Child Vision Collaborative is expected to serve about 650 students from the schools this week. The collaborative, led by Building Healthy Futures, is made up of 18 local community organizations, nonprofits and others.

Building Healthy Futures is an independent nonprofit that aims to improve the health of underserved children in the community. It already oversees eight schools’ health centers and facilitates oral health services in 32 schools.

Volunteers in the program conduct initial screenings at the schools, and students who are identified as having vision difficulties are referred for exams.

Central Park Elementary Principal Scott Sturgeon says vision problems are more difficult to spot than academic and social needs for students.

NELSON, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a man reported that he swerved to avoid a deer and then crashed a minivan he was driving in southern Nebraska, killing his grandmother.

A passer-by called 911 about 8 p.m. Saturday, telling authorities about seeing the minivan in a creek and then a man walking a couple miles east of the crash site near Nelson. Deputies and medics found the body of 61-year-old Vickie Boykin in the wreckage. She lived in Oak.

A deputy found her grandson, 23-year-old Paul Boykin, who later said he was driving with his grandmother west into the sunset when he suddenly saw the deer and swerved to miss it. The Nuckolls County Sheriff’s Office says the minivan went out of control and ran off the road into Elk Creek.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A 21-year-old woman accused of robbing a Lincoln bank branch has been given a year in jail.

Court records say Nicole Biehl was sentenced Tuesday in Lancaster County District Court. She’d been accused of using a knife to threaten a clerk when robbing a Pinnacle Bank branch Sept. 6. No one was injured.

The records say Biehl pleaded guilty to terroristic threats and a weapons count after prosecutors dropped a robbery charge.

The judge credited Biehl for 194 days already served and sentenced her to three years of probation for the weapons crime.
