SALINA, Kan. (AP) — A judge has found sufficient evidence for two people to stand trial in the killing of a Nebraska man in a Salina motel parking lot.

21-year-old DiAntre Lemmie and 24-year-old Amber Craig were bound over for trial Tuesday. They are charged in the fatal April shooting of 32-year-old Adonis Loudermilk, of Lincoln, Nebraska.

Among the preliminary hearing witnesses was James Faircloth, who tattooed Lemmie at the motel. Faircloth said he heard Craig tell Lemmie that Loudermilk had a “wad” of cash, and that Lemmie vowed to “get that.” Later, Lemmie left the room, and Faircloth said he heard Lemmie say, “I know you got it,” followed by gunshots.

Fairchild testified Craig then said that she didn’t think Lemmie would “take it that far.”

Officials say the fire occurred Tuesday morning just north of 120th and Blondo Streets in northwest Omaha.

BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — An eastern Nebraska city administrator has been charged with various misdemeanors for a disturbance at a local dental office.

Bellevue City Administrator Dan Berlowitz was ticketed on the counts on June 21 following the disturbance that morning at Allan Smith Dental in Bellevue, where Berlowitz’s wife used to work.

A police report says Berlowitz poked a dentist in the chest and then pushed the dentist’s shoulder.

Berlowitz has since been charged with trespassing, disturbing the peace and third-degree assault, all misdemeanors. His arraignment has been set for July 27 in Sarpy County.

Berlowitz has been placed on administrative leave. A phone number for Berlowitz could not be found Tuesday.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Police say officers have arrested a man who got a 16-year-old drunk and then had sex with her in a portable toilet and elsewhere near downtown Lincoln.

Court records say 36-year-old Marvin Velasquez is charged with sexual assault of an incompetent person. They don’t list the name of an attorney who could comment for Velasquez.

The records say the girl told investigators that her boyfriend dropped her off downtown around 5 p.m. June 21 so she could meet a friend. She says she came upon a man whom she asked to buy her alcohol. An affidavit says the two shared the booze while sitting under a bridge. She says he then forced her into having sex in the portable toilet and elsewhere because she was too drunk to stop him.
