(AP) — A 36-year-old Lincoln man has been given 46 months in federal prison for selling a gun to a convicted felon.

Prosecutors say Ashley Gerbig was sentenced on Monday in U.S. District Court in Lincoln. He’d pleaded guilty to one count in October after prosecutors promised to seek dismissal of five more counts.

Court documents say agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives searched Gerbig’s home on March 19 last year and found 678 firearms, including assault weapons, in addition to 13 hand grenades, some mortar rounds and other ammunition.

The documents say a convicted felon working as an informant bought several guns from Gerbig, even though the informant told Gerbig about being a felon.

State and federal laws bar convicted felons from owning or buying weapons.

(AP) — A dog that was shot as it charged a Lincoln man is expected to survive.

Lincoln police Capt. Michon Morrow (mih-SHAWN’ MOR’-roh) said the incident occurred Monday evening in the Capitol Beach neighborhood.

Morrow says the Labrador-pit bull mix jumped its owner’s fence into a neighbor’s backyard. It barked and growled as it tried to get through a dog door into the neighbor’s home. A man inside the house got the dog away from the dog door but ended up cornered in the yard. Morrow says the man fired a handgun at the charging dog when it was three feet away, hitting it in the head.

No citations have been issued.

(AP) — Authorities have released the names of a man who was killed and another who was injured in a Lincoln accident that may have involved the racing of their motorcycles.

Lincoln police identified the dead man as 24-year-old Petro “Peter” Denysyuk. The injured man was identified as 26-year-old Sergey Kapliyev.

Police say the accident occurred about 4 p.m. Sunday on the west side of Lincoln. Police Capt. Danny Reitan says the two men lost control of their motorcycles as they drove north on Folsom Bypass. Denysyuk’s motorcycle crashed into a stream. His body was found there. Kapliyev landed in a grassy area nearby. He’s been listed in fair condition at a Lincoln hospital.

Police spokeswoman Katie Flood says the two men may have been racing.

(AP) — The discrimination lawsuit of a former York firefighter and paramedic who was fired after breaking her foot will be heard by a jury.

Lisa Peter sued in 2012, accusing the city of discriminating against her because she’s a woman and because of her disability. She had surgery for a broken foot in 2010 for an injury that was not work-related.

Peter says she asked for light duty work until she could heal, but city officials refused, even though they had done so for an ill male firefighter. Peter was fired within months of her injury.

On Monday, U.S. District Judge John Gerrard rejected the city of York’s motion for summary judgment, saying a jury should decide whether Peter could have returned to work before running out of leave time.

(AP) — A 3-year-old boy has died in an Omaha hospital after being accidentally run over by his uncle at a trailer park in Hastings.

Taylor Wilson, of Nebraska Medical Center, on Tuesday confirmed the death of Aldo Ramirez-Lopez but declined to say when the boy died.

Hastings police say Aldo was struck Saturday evening as his uncle, 21-year-old Miguel Lopez, was parking a Ford Expedition at Smitty’s Trailer Park. Police say Lopez didn’t see the boy approaching from between several parked vehicles.

(AP) — A proposal to increase Nebraska’s minimum wage to $9 an hour is dead for the year.

The bill stalled Monday night on a 20-20 vote in the Legislature. Opponents also defeated several amendments that would have exempted small- and mid-sized businesses, and allowed companies to exclude employees who have worked for them for less than two years.

The measure would have raised the wage gradually, from $7.25 to $9.00 by 2017. Business groups opposed it, saying the legislation would have increased their labor costs and made them less competitive.

Lawmakers also rejected a proposal to raise the minimum wage for tipped workers, who currently make $2.13 an hour.

Their names haven’t been released. The accident is being investigated.

(AP) — A May trial has been scheduled for a 46-year-old Genoa man charged with manslaughter in the crash death of his mother.

Michael Logan pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Friday in Platte County District Court. Logan’s trial is scheduled to begin on May 28.

Logan is accused of driving drunk when he turned in front of oncoming traffic northwest of Columbus the morning of Dec. 10. Authorities say Logan was driving south toward Columbus on U.S. Highway 81 when he tried to turn left. His vehicle was struck on the passenger side by a northbound car driven by 42-year-old Jeannine Velazquez, of Norfolk.

Logan’s mother, 63-year-old Lois Reynolds, of Genoa, died later at a hospital. Logan and Velazquez also were injured.
