Driver Dies in Collision Near Paxton

Posted on

fatal-accident(AP) — A 41-year-old Iowa woman has died after a traffic accident on Interstate 80 in western Nebraska.

The Nebraska State Patrol says the accident occurred about 7 a.m. Sunday around two miles west of the Paxton interchange. The patrol says a westbound vehicle driven by Charity Kugler, of Nevada (nuh-VAY’-duh), Iowa, went out of control, struck a westbound semitrailer, then crossed the median and stopped in eastbound lanes. The patrol says Kugler was fatally injured.

Two passengers, Jason and Joy Kugler, also from Iowa, were hospitalized. The truck driver was not hurt.

The accident is being investigated.

Students Can Volunteer for Neb. Primary Election

Posted on

vote(AP) — Nebraska Secretary of State John Gale is encouraging students too young to vote to show up at the polls for the state’s May 13 primary.

Nebraska students ages 14 to 18 can serve as election workers during the primary as part of the Youth Election Service. The service is designed to increase young people’s interest and involvement in the election system.

Students who work or volunteer at least four hours are eligible to have their names selected to receive a $50 gift card. All participants receive a certificate from the Secretary of State’s office acknowledging their service.

More than 260 students from 27 counties worked during the 2012 primary and general elections. The program is sponsored by the Secretary of State’s office and the Nebraska Bankers Association.

Colorado Pot Law Frustrates Nebraska Law Enforcement

Posted on

24-lbs-of-pot(AP) — Some Nebraska law enforcement officers are frustrated that their agencies have to bear the cost of jailing and prosecuting people for drug violations tied to Colorado’s legalized marijuana.

Western Nebraska agencies are increasingly busy because of cases involving Colorado pot.

Deuel County Sheriff Adam Hayward says many officers in the region have come to believe that Colorado should shoulder some of the cost. But Hayward says political leaders in Lincoln don’t appear to want to get involved, and he’s not sure what Nebraska law enforcement can do.

Marijuana use is legal in Colorado, but it remains an illicit drug under federal law and in all seven states that border Colorado.

Teen Who Escaped in Hastings Turns Himself In

Posted on

hastings-police-good(AP) — Hastings police say a 17-year-old who escaped from custody has turned himself in to authorities.

The boy returned to authorities around 12:30 a.m. on Sunday. Police say he escaped around 5:30 p.m. on Thursday as deputies were taking him from a squad car to the Adams County Courthouse. Court records say he had a court appearance for allegedly violating the terms of his probation.

Court records say the teen pleaded no contest in July to a second-degree assault charge. A judge sentenced him to two years of intense supervised probation.

The Associated Press generally doesn’t name juveniles accused of crimes.

In Colorado, Pot Holiday Goes Mainstream

Posted on

colorado-420(AP) — The 4/20 stoner holiday is going mainstream in Colorado.

April 20 has traditionally been a day for marijuana activists to defiantly light up to protest their drug of choice being outlawed. But Colorado has legalized pot. This weekend is filled with marijuana-themed activities that will culminate at a festival at a park in downtown Denver.

Tens of thousands of people are expected to smoke marijuana at 4:20 p.m. MDT Sunday.

There is heavy security at the event after a shooting marred it last year. This year the festival is being run by a professional event company. It’s short on pro-legalization speeches and instead crowded with vendor booths. A separate marijuana industry event called the Cannabis Cup north of downtown is also drawing thousands.

Same Issues, New Faces for 2015 Neb. Legislative Session

Posted on

NE Legislature(AP) — Nebraska lawmakers will face many of the same issues in 2015 that they failed to pass this year, but more than one-third of the senators will be new.

The session that ended Thursday was the last for 17 of the Legislature’s 49 members, who are prohibited from seeking re-election because of term limits. With a wave of new members every two years, senators and lobbyists get a fresh shot at passing legislation that was defeated in previous years.

Speaker of the Legislature Greg Adams says the new wave of senators could swing the debates on issues such as taxes, capital punishment and Medicaid.

UNL Expert Offers Tree Planting Advice

Posted on

unl-extension(AP) — More than 1 million tree and shrub seedlings are planted in Nebraska each year, and most of those are planted in spring.

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension forester Dennis Adams says there are a number of things that can be done to help seedlings thrive.

The best time to plant seedlings that are typically only about a foot tall with bare roots is between mid-March and mid-May.

Ideally, seedlings should be planted the same day they are received. And Adams says the roots should be kept moist until planting.

The seedlings should be planted at the same depth they grew at in the nursery.

Seedlings will need good weed and pest control after they are planted. And supplemental watering may be required.

Arbor Day is April 25 in Nebraska.
