Looks like the off duty officer provoked Willie Miller in the road rage incident. What did the officer do? Well he honked at Miller who was seen driving recklessly. Miller wasn’t about to be honked at and had to apparently turn around to ram the off duty officers car from behind. A witness said the officer identified himself as an off duty Police Officer but Miller still attempted to punch him. Well from the pictures of the scene at least Big Will has a nice suit for Court.
Sarpy County Officials have issued a Liquor License to the Bellevue Berry Patch to sell beer, wine and spirits but issued a warning to not try and turn their party barn into a bar. The license will be used for private parties, weddings and corporate events, which make up a substantial portion of the business. The owner said he would confine alcohol sales to 10 of the 80-acre and did not want it on the hayrack rides. So much for the Pickled Pumpkin Picking Contest.
An Omaha man who was involved in a deadly motorcycle crash claims the police were trying to kill them. The man and his cousin were on a cycle near 26th and Dewey when Police attempted a traffic stop. The bike raced off and the officers said they did not peruse but called for the police helicopter.
A few blocks away the bike crashed killing one man and sending the other to the hospital where he has since been released and lawyered up. “They killed my cousin and they was trying to kill me.” The man claims. He said the officers shined the spotlight on them and followed them. He felt a bump right before the wreck.
Lets see the bumper cam on this one. Granted this guy isn’t dressed as well as Willie Miller in his picture/mug shot but we are guessing the officers shined the light on them when they tried to pull them over, his cousin sped off and hit the pot hole up there on St Mary’s Ave. Just a guess.
Attorney General John Bruning will appeal the Nebraska Supreme Court Ruling calling the electric chair cruel and inhuman punishment. The Nebraska Court refused to reconsider the case as Bruning said they would. The State Court Legislation From the Bench Ruling leaves the state without a valid form of execution. There are currently 10 people sitting on death row in Nebraska.
A Bellevue man was jailed for felony child abuse after shaking his 5-month-old baby and putting her in critical condition. The mother had left to go pick up some food and returned to the child being lifeless and unresponsive. A neighbor witnessed it and attempted to help the infant begin to breath.
That’s it for now
More later……………….
