LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska officials have ordered a recount in a primary election for the Upper Big Blue Natural Resources District.

The Nebraska Board of Canvassers on Monday certified the results of all races from last month’s primary, except for the NRD race. The recount was ordered because of an oversight that led to more than 1,000 voters in York County not receiving that race on their ballots. The county election clerk sought to fix the problem by reprinting and distributing corrected ballots.

The results show that Stan Boehr received 3,422 votes in the race. Eugene Ulmer received 2,870 votes, while Becky Roesler received 2,852 votes. The vote margin between Ulmer and Roesler was close enough that it triggered the state’s automatic recount rules.

DENVER (AP) — Denver police say a dispatcher has been fired after failing to relay key information to officers responding to a call from a woman who was killed 12 minutes into a 911 call.

Police say the dispatcher didn’t tell officers that the woman’s husband was getting a gun from a safe.

Public safety department spokeswoman Daelene Mix said Monday the dispatcher was fired Friday. The person was not identified.

Police have said Kristine Kirk pleaded in the April 14 call for authorities to hurry and send officers because her husband had asked her to get a gun and shoot him.

Kirk said Richard Kirk was hallucinating, after having marijuana-infused candy and possibly pain pills.

Forty-seven year-old Richard Kirk has been charged with first-degree murder. He has not yet entered a plea.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Family members remember the former Nebraska man killed in an ambush at a Las Vegas restaurant as a caring husband and father who dreamed of becoming a police officer as a child.

Officer Igor Soldo and Officer Alyn Beck were killed Sunday. The couple that ambushed the officers fled to a Wal-Mart and killed another man before killing themselves.

Igor Soldo’s Fifty-eight-year-old mother, Sirli Soldo, says he was a wonderful son, husband and father.

The Soldo family immigrated to Lincoln, Nebraska, from war-torn Bosnia in 1995 when Igor was 13. He learned English and graduated from Lincoln Southeast High in 2000 and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2004.

Soldo was planning to return to Lincoln in a few weeks to celebrate his son’s first birthday with family and friends.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — An audit of Veterans Affairs facilities has found nearly 1,000 veterans who requested an initial appointment in Iowa or Nebraska over the last decade, but have not yet been seen.

CAMARILLO, California (AP) — A survey says the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline in the U.S. is holding steady, rising 3½ cents over the last three weeks to $3.69.

Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said Sunday that crude oil prices are little changed and strong refinery output has quenched higher demand. She anticipates minor price declines ahead.

The survey taken Friday shows the average price for a gallon of midgrade gas was $3.88 and the average price for a gallon of premium was $4.03. Diesel averaged $3.96 a gallon.

Of cities surveyed in the continental U.S., Baton Rouge, Louisiana, had the lowest average price at $3.33 a gallon. San Francisco had the highest average at $4.14 a gallon.

The average price per gallon of Regular in Nebraska is $3.52, according to gasbuddy.com.

FALLS CITY, Neb. (AP) — Law enforcement agencies are combing southeast Nebraska, looking for a car carrying someone who shot a sheriff’s deputy.

The shooting occurred about 2:45 a.m. Monday on Richardson County Road 717 near U.S. Highway 75, about 10 miles south of Auburn.

Richardson County Sheriff Randy Houser says the deputy had noticed a stopped car, so he approached to offer help to the people inside. Houser says several shots were fired from inside the vehicle, which then sped away.

The deputy gave a chase but soon stopped when he noticed that one of his arms had been hit by a bullet.

The officer is being treated in Lincoln. His name hasn’t been released.

No arrests have been reported.
