THEDFORD, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska authorities say a pickup driver has been killed in a Cherry County collision with a semitrailer.

The accident occurred a little before 7 a.m. Wednesday on U.S. Highway 83, 17 miles north of Thedford. Nebraska State Patrol spokeswoman Deb Collins says the northbound pickup crossed into oncoming traffic and rammed into the semi.

The pickup driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Collins says the semitrailer driver was not injured.

The names of those involved have not been released.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Now that Nebraska voters have restored the death penalty, Gov. Pete Ricketts says he plans to meet with the attorney general to discuss how to resume executions.

Ricketts said Wednesday it’s too early to know exactly how the state will acquire the lethal injection drugs it currently lacks or whether Nebraska will change its protocol. Nebraska has struggled to obtain all of the necessary drugs, and Ricketts previously said the state would halt its efforts until after Tuesday’s statewide vote.

Voters overturned the Legislature’s decision last year to abolish capital punishment. A coalition partially financed by Ricketts launched a ballot drive that placed the issue on the ballot after lawmakers overrode the governor’s veto in May 2015.

Ricketts says the vote demonstrates clear public support for capital punishment in Nebraska.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities are investigating an act of vandalism at the Nebraska Capitol.

Authorities learned Wednesday that someone spray-painted the words “Trump = Racism” and “Ricketts = Racism” at the Capitol’s north entrance, beneath the stairs, in an area where state officials park.

Nebraska State Patrol spokeswoman Deb Collins says authorities are reviewing security camera surveillance footage to try to identify any suspects.

Gov. Pete Ricketts is in China on a foreign trade mission. Republican Donald Trump was elected president in Tuesday’s election.
