KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A Missouri police officer has been indicted on assault charges after shooting and injuring a man police were trying to arrest last summer.

Kansas City officer Jacob Ramsey was arraigned Friday after being indicted by a Jackson County grand jury. He’s facing charges of first-degree assault and armed criminal action. A judge entered a not-guilty plea on his behalf.

Investigators say Ramsey shot 37-year-old Anthony Contreras after police went to Contreras’ home to serve an arrest warrant on June 24. Police say Contreras was shot while he tried to flee on foot.

Through his attorney, Ramsey waived his right to a jury trial and requested that a judge decide the case. A trial was scheduled for April 2.

The 31-year-old Ramsey is on unpaid administrative leave.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed against the state by the estate of an Omaha boy strangled by his mother.

Angela Manns admitted strangling her 12-year-old son, Michael Belitz, while he slept on Aug. 11, 2009. His decomposing body was found in a bathtub. Manns was sentenced to 34 to 35 years in prison.

Judge Mark Ashford in October last year granted a request by the state’s lawyers to dismiss the case, saying the state had established no “special relationship” with the boy to protect him from his mother.

The lawsuit by his estate said state officials failed to act on repeated warnings from the boy’s mother and other family members about his welfare.

The estate’s attorney didn’t immediately return a call Friday from The Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — YouTube is going to release a mobile app that will only show video clips suitable for young children to help parents control what their kids are watching on the Internet.

The app features thousands of kid-focused channels that provide both entertainment and education. The content is mostly tailored for children ranging from two to eight years old.

Ads will be shown with some of the clips to help funnel more revenue to Google, one of the world’s most profitable companies.

BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — Three people have been charge in connection with the December death of a 2-month-old girl who’d been living in filthy conditions at a house in Bellevue.

Sarpy County prosecutors say 30-year-old Kristin Lary is charged with four felony counts of child abuse. Twenty-seven-year-old Aaron Thompson and 35-year-old Michael Degarmo are both charged with four misdemeanor counts of negligent child abuse. Online court records don’t list the names of their attorneys.

Officers who found little Jasmine Thompson at the house reported seeing several bags of garbage in the kitchen and said the house smelled of bleach and feces.

Court documents say Jasmine’s mother, Samantha Thompson, is a federal prisoner and is Aaron Thompson’s wife. The documents say Jasmine’s biological father is Andrew Tillman, who is in federal prison.

HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) — Hastings College officials are asking for the return of a 1921 Bible valued at $6,000 that went missing from the campus library’s collection.

An anonymous donor is offering a $1,000 reward for the return of the two-volume Jewish Bible.

Matt Fong, the college’s chief of staff, says no questions will be asked of the person returning the book, which was donated to the college in 2007.

The book was discovered missing about six months ago, when the donor asked to see it.

Fong says officials have searched places the book might be, such as with members of the college religion department. He says it’s likely the book was stolen.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Three Lincoln police captains with a combined total of 123 years of experience have retired within a three-week period.

David Beggs, Kim Koluch and Doug Srb left the Lincoln Police Department this year after starting their careers in the 1960s and late 1970s.

The captains spent 46, 36 and 42 years on the police force, respectively. Koluch was commander of the center team, which includes downtown Lincoln, when she retired. Beggs and Srb were both duty commanders just before their retirement.

The three captains elected five years ago to be a part of a deferred retirement option program, which allowed the department time to find replacements.

During their careers, Lincoln’s population increased 60 percent, and the number of officers went from 122 to 322.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A twice-convicted sex offender has been sentenced to 20 to 30 years in prison for attempting to rape a woman in a Lincoln alleyway.

59-year-old Abejide, who goes by one name, was sentenced Thursday for attempted first-degree sexual assault and terroristic threat convictions. Abejide must serve a full 20 years before he is eligible for parole.

At trial last month, the 41-year-old woman who accused Abejide of the attempted rape testified that he pulled her into an alley and pulled down her pants. A police officer found Abejide pressing the woman against the wall, but Abejide says the interaction was consensual.

Abejide says the charge and subsequent sentence were based on “lies and deception.” Prosecutors say Abejide needs to take responsibility for his actions.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A former Omaha computer engineer who says he hasn’t filed federal individual income tax returns since 2000 is on trial for three charges of tax evasion.

The case against 59-year-old Chet Lee West, of Nebo, North Carolina, began Wednesday. If convicted, West faces up to 15 years in prison and a $750,000 fine.

West, who is representing himself, says he’s exempt from paying income taxes, and he told that to Infocrossing Inc. in Omaha while he worked there from 2007 until 2009.

Federal prosecutor Donald J. Kleine says West failed to pay more than $52,800 in income taxes over the two-year period in which he earned more than $270,000. Kleine also says the IRS told West in 2007 that he wasn’t exempt from income taxes.

BEATRICE, Neb. (AP) — The Keep Beatrice Beautiful program has been awarded a $10,000 grant by the Keep America Beautiful Community Paint Donation Program to help upkeep the interior of the Beatrice City Auditorium.

Officials will use the money to purchase 400 gallons of cream-colored, specialized paint to coat the interior walls.

Public Properties Director Mark Pethoud estimates that the last time the building received a fresh coat of paint was 25 years ago.

Construction of the building was started in 1939 and was completed in 1940. The historical auditorium was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska lawmakers are considering a bill that would protect residents from having to pay tickets generated by Iowa traffic cameras.

Sen. Bill Kintner of Papillion presented the measure Thursday to the Judiciary Committee. It’s modeled after a new South Dakota law that prohibits officials from releasing information about the state’s registered drivers.

Without that information, camera operators can’t send a bill to the owner of a car caught speeding or running a red light. South Dakota’s law has drawn the ire of police in neighboring Sioux City, Iowa.

Kintner says vehicle owners who receive tickets aren’t given the chance to confront their accusers, and his bill would prevent outside governments from “using our citizens as ATMs” to generate revenue.
