NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (AP) – A 48-year-old Nebraska woman has been given 300 days in jail for sexually assaulting her daughter.
Teresa Holloway of Imperial had been charged with incest. She pleaded guilty to lesser charge of misdemeanor sexual assault after making a deal with prosecutors.
Holloway was sentenced on Tuesday and given credit for 182 days served. She must register as a sex offender.
The woman’s husband, Dennis Holloway, was convicted of incest and in January was sentenced to 10-to-20 years in prison.
Police say the daughter reported that the incest continued into her adulthood. She is at least 26 now.

GOTHENBURG, Neb. (AP) – A 2-year-old Colorado boy has died in a crash on Interstate 80 east of Gothenburg in south-central Nebraska.
The accident happened around 7:30 p.m. Monday when a westbound car ran into the median and rolled after passing a semitrailer.
The Nebraska State Patrol says Joshua Atkins, of Brush, Colo., was in a car seat that wasn’t properly secured in the vehicle. Three adults in the car were injured, including the boy’s mother, 23-year-old Katie Griggs.

GREENWOOD, Neb. (AP) – Authorities say a staff member and six
students have been taken to a Lincoln hospital after their school
bus collided with a semitrailer on Interstate 80 a few miles east
of Lincoln.
The Nebraska State Patrol says the accident occurred near the
Greenwood interchange a little after 9:15 a.m. Tuesday.
The 28 students and four staffers were on a field trip to Omaha
when the collision forced the bus into the median. It ended up
straddling a concrete construction barrier but did not roll over.
District spokeswoman Tori Stofferson says six
students were taken to the hospital with what appeared to be minor
injuries.
The patrol says the staffer was taken to the hospital in serious
condition. Neither driver was injured.
Other students were treated at the scene.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – An attorney for opponents of the Keystone XL says Nebraska’s sovereign immunity would protect the state from lawsuits if officials diverted the proposed oil pipeline.
Sierra Club attorney Alan Peterson said Monday that even if the state waived its immunity to a lawsuit and lost, pipeline developers could not likely recover more than the cost of right-of-way easements obtained from landowners.
Peterson made his statements to the Legislature’s Natural Resources Committee during the first day of special session hearings aimed at major oil pipelines. His comments were in reference to a bill (LB1) by Fullerton Sen. Annette Dubas that would give Nebraska’s Public Service Commission authority over pipeline routes.
The session was called amid concerns over the Keystone XL. Supporters say it’s too late for Nebraska to assert routing authority.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – The threat of carbon monoxide poisoning grows as the Nebraska weather turns colder.
The Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha says the use of furnaces, fireplaces, car engines and generators in areas with poornventilation can lead to carbon monoxide exposure, so caution should be used.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless and odorless gas that can affect the flow of oxygen in the blood stream. Poisoning can take hours to days. Signs include headache, dizziness and flu-like symptoms. Those who are exposed may need oxygen treatments or time in a hyperbaric unit.

MCCOOK, Neb. (AP) – A judge has fined a McCook city councilman $150 for disturbing the peace.
Judge Anne Paine warned Councilman Aaron Kircher that repeat offenses could lead to higher fines and even jail.
The case against Kircher began around 1:30 a.m. on July 31 when a neighbor called police to complain about a noisy party.
Three McCook police officers who testified during Kircher’s trial last week said they’ve responded to similar complaints about noisy parties at Kircher’s home.
Kircher apologized during the trial, saying he was not trying to defy the law or disturb anyone’s peace.
