OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An Omaha man has been sentenced to more than 11 years in prison for robbing two banks.

Senior U.S. District Court Judge Joseph F. Bataillon sentenced 39-year-old Phillip M. Weber to 138 months in federal prison on Wednesday.

Weber was accused of taking $4,500 from a Security National Bank branch in Omaha in May 2014. He was accused of taking more than $1,800 from a Iberia Bank in Little Rock, Arkansas, in June 2014.

Prosecutors say Weber carjacked a vehicle that was later used in the Arkansas bank robbery.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A low car titling fee in Nebraska likely prompted an out-of-state dealership to turn to the Lancaster County Department of Motor Vehicles for such certificates.

A Lancaster County Treasurer’s Office employee says LaBelle Chevrolet of Bridgewater, Massachusetts, has requested and received nearly 3,000 car titles from the Lancaster County DMV since February. The Nebraska DMV charges just $10 per title, while Massachusetts charges $75.

Nebraska allows out-of-state companies to get newly purchased vehicles inspected outside of Nebraska and then have those inspection documents sent to DMV offices in Nebraska for titling.

The Lincoln Journal Star (https://bit.ly/1JvvOkF ) reports that the county doesn’t get to collect sales tax on the LaBelle vehicles it titles since they aren’t purchased or sold in Nebraska.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Officials are working to close a loophole after learning that an ordinance barring hunting in city parks largely didn’t apply to a man who used his bow to kill three deer on land near Lake Zorinsky in western Omaha.

Steven Greise of Plattsmouth faced seven charges, which were dropped as part of a plea deal, for hunting in the park last October. Interim city prosecutor Tom Mumgaard says the incident showed the ordinance wasn’t as clear as it should be.

Now the Omaha City Council is considering an ordinance that would explicitly state that hunting is illegal in the city’s parks. The Omaha World-Herald (https://bit.ly/1hUrq7X ) reports that the city also plans to install “no hunting” signs in the parks.

City Council members are expected to vote on the proposal Tuesday.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A November trial has been scheduled for a Lincoln man who intends to raise an insanity defense against a charge that he killed his wife.

Forty-two-year-old Kent Burklund is accused of killing 41-year-old Bettina Burklund at their home in April 2014. Police say Kent Burklund told investigators he was afraid of his wife and believed gang members had put date-rape drugs into his drinks and poisoned him with methamphetamine.

Burklund’s lawyer has filed notice with the court of her intent to raise the insanity defense. A judge ruled in August last year and again in February this year that Kent Burklund was incompetent for trial. In May another judge ruled that Burklund was competent for trial.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say an accidental fall while drunk killed a homeless man whose body was found under a bridge in west Lincoln.

The Lancaster County coroner says 53-year-old Robbie Young died of head injuries consistent with a fall. An autopsy toxicology report showed that Young’s blood alcohol content was more than 3½ times the legal limit for driving when he fell.

A jogger found the body on July 6. Police had been investigating the case to determine whether Young’s fall was an accident or whether he’d been killed by someone.

Officials say Young often spent nights at the nearby People’s City Mission for homeless people.

PETERSBURG, Neb. (AP) — A man has been given probation and six months in jail instead of the 60 days that prosecutors recommended as part of a plea agreement with a man convicted of neglecting horses on his Boone County property.

Judge Rachel Dougherty handed down the tougher sentence Tuesday to James Majerus. The 67-year-old originally was charged with two felony and 11 misdemeanor counts of livestock neglect after several malnourished horses were removed from the property in December. Majerus pleaded no contest and was convicted in August of one felony count after prosecutors reduced the charges.

Dougherty cited a previous neglect case involving Majerus in which a co-defendant was sentenced to six months. The judge says giving Majerus anything less than six months wouldn’t have been fair.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A California couple has been arrested after authorities found more than 10 pounds of methamphetamine in their vehicle during a traffic stop near Lincoln.

According to court records unsealed Tuesday, a 45-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman were arrested Sunday afternoon. The Lincoln Journal Star (https://bit.ly/1FjmQoK ) reports the two were pulled over by Nebraska State Patrol troopers for a routine traffic stop.

Christopher Apley, an investigator with the Drug Enforcement Administration, said a patrol officer grew suspicious and asked for permission to search the vehicle. Authorities found eight bundles of methamphetamine, weighing just over 10 pounds total, under the back seat.

According to Apley, authorities believe the methamphetamine was being transported from San Jose, California, to Omaha.

The two suspects face charges including passion with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of methamphetamine.

YORK, Neb. (AP) — A 59-year-old man accused of trying to kill two relatives in McCool Junction has been returned to a psychiatric hospital.

Gilbert Hendricks was found not guilty by reason of insanity and committed to state care in 2008. The York News-Times reports (https://bit.ly/1IItNQr ) that Judge James Stecker of York County District Court granted a request last week by County Attorney Candace Dick that Hendricks remain in state care. Dick told Stecker that, based on examinations of Hendricks by medical professionals, “evidence exists that the individual remains mentally ill and dangerous.”

Hendricks’ mother told investigators that she awoke in her bedroom on Sept. 6, 2007, to find her son standing over her, cutting her throat. She says she fought him off. Hendricks’ sister was injured when she tried to protect her mother.
