OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Omaha Police Department says a robbery suspect shot by an officer has died.

Police said Tuesday that 39-year-old Danny Elrod died at Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha.

The department says officers were dispatched to a business around 6:30 p.m. Monday on a report of an armed robbery. Police spokesman James Shade (shayed) says officers saw the male suspect running near the store. An altercation broke out as officers attempted to arrest Elrod, and one officer shot him.

Police didn’t say whether Elrod had a weapon or how many times he was shot. The officer wasn’t injured. His or her name hasn’t been released.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An Omaha woman who says she came home to find her belongings strewn about her front yard and labeled with “free” signs has told police that she believes her landlord is to blame.

The 50-year-old woman says she suspects the incident was her landlord’s way of telling her to move out. In a police report filed Friday, the woman says her landlord had previously mentioned her leaving the residence, but that she was never given an eviction notice.

The woman says a family member called her last week to tell her that her property was stacked in her front yard. She says when she returned, she discovered that many items were missing, including furniture, paintings and antique porcelain dolls.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Omaha Fire Department has resumed its odd-even schedule for transporting critically ill or injured people to Omaha’s two Level 1 hospital trauma centers.

The department said in a news release that the schedule resumed at noon Monday for Nebraska Medical Center and Creighton University Medical Center. Creighton had been out of the rotation since January, when the state didn’t certify the hospital’s emergency room for patients requiring Level 1 care. Trauma centers treat people who require immediate and intensive attention, and Level 1 patients may need resuscitation or establishment of an airway.

Creighton learned Friday that it had been given the certification.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A Nebraska judge has ruled that property owners are entitled to more information about the process that the Douglas County assessor uses to determine property valuations.

District Court Judge Peter Bataillon ruled earlier this month that the new County Assessor Diane Battiato must provide the documents that explain show valuations were determined.

Several people went to court alleging that the Assessor’s Office is ignoring the Nebraska Open Records Act and State Department of Revenue administrative rules on assessment hearings.

Battiato has been holding hearings this month with people who are disputing their property valuations, which determine a property tax bill. Despite the meetings, some taxpayers don’t believe they are getting enough information.

Battiatio says that her office is working on being as transparent as possible.

PAPILLION, Neb. (AP) — A former Iowa state Senate candidate accused of sexual assault and other misdemeanors in eastern Nebraska has made a deal with prosecutors.

Online court records say a sentencing hearing is scheduled April 3 in Papillion (puh-PIHL’-yuhn) for 69-year-old Donald Brantz. He was convicted in Sarpy County Court after pleading no contest to disturbing the peace. Prosecutors dropped misdemeanor charges of sexual assault, assault and interfering with a public service company in exchange for Brantz’s plea.

Prosecutors say Brantz, of Glenwood, was accused of inappropriately touching a woman on Oct. 10 and threatening to choke her.

Brantz ran unsuccessfully as a Libertarian candidate for the Iowa Senate seat vacated by U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst. Republican Mark Costello, of Imogene, won the late December special election.

HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) — A Hastings man has won a hearing on his request to withdraw his pleas to charges stemming from the dragging of a police officer.

The hearing has been scheduled March 24 for 30-year-old Marty Deckert. He’d accepted a plea deal on charges of attempted second-degree murder and other crimes. Other charges were dismissed. Authorities say Deckert tried to avoid arrest in July by speeding away in a car while dragging a police officer.

At his sentencing hearing on Friday, Deckert told a judge that he wanted a new attorney and said, “I may be guilty of some things that happened that day, but not enough to go to prison.” The judge denied Deckert’s request for a new court-appointed attorney but set the hearing on Deckert’s request to withdraw his pleas.
