LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A former city clerk accused of stealing from several southeastern Nebraska villages has died.

60-year-old Ginger Neuhart died at Mary Lanning Healthcare in Hastings on Tuesday, a day after pleading guilty to theft and agreeing to pay restitution to Alvo of $39,000. Her sentencing had been set for May 29. It’s unclear how she died.

Neuhart was also facing charges forgery and theft charges in Saunders County. She was accused of embezzling from the villages of Ithaca and Memphis while working as clerk/treasurer.

The charges followed Nebraska State Auditor reviews that found Neuhart had altered her monthly paychecks to add $1,000 to $2,000 to them after they’d been signed.

The audits found $160,500 in fraudulent payments to Neuhart since 2005 from Memphis coffers; $41,000 in overpayments in Ithaca since May 2013, and $105,000 from Alvo over seven years.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A woman has filed a lawsuit against the Omaha massage and spa business, saying it’s liable for her sexual assault by one of its employees.

The lawsuit was filed Friday in Douglas County District Court against Oasis Massage & Spa and seeks an unspecified amount in damages. It says Oasis failed to properly supervise 62-year-old Melvin Buffington, who has been criminally charged with 14 counts of sexual assault for incidents involving massage customers.

The woman, who goes by the pseudonym “Jane Doe” in the lawsuit to protect her identity, says Buffington sexually assaulted her in January, causing her mental anguish.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The theater in Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium in Nebraska has reopened after a $1.2 million renovation.

The zoo’s theater reopened Friday. It had been closed starting Jan. 15 for a revamp that included a new screen, sound system, chairs, carpet, lighting and cup holders.

The newspaper reports that the zoo ditched the Imax screen and replaced it with a 3-D 4K system. The new screen is smaller than the old one at 41 feet high and 75 feet long. Zoo officials say that will give the theater more film options and better sound quality. It’s also a cost saver compared to screening Imax movies.

The renovations were funded through donations. Films now screening at the theater include “Oceans: Our Blue Planet 3D” and “Meerkats.”

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An Omaha woman accused of angrily chasing a motorcyclist before the bike crashed into another, killing three people, has been sentenced to a year of probation.

Police say Boisseau chased the motorcycle in a road rage incident last June after confronting a group of bikers in a parking lot. Police say the motorcycle driver, 24-year-old Andrew Torrice, ran a red light in an effort to flee Boisseau, crashing into another motorcycle. The crash killed Torrice, 34-year-old Adam Kammann and his passenger, 37-year-old Christine Zadina.
