 
Motor vehicle homicide
charges dropped Lincoln Journal Star
Charges against a 17-year-old Lincoln boy
arrested last week on suspicion of misdemeanor motor vehicle
homicide have been dropped.
Lancaster County Attorney Gary Lacey said Carl A. Thomas, of 5221
S. 49th St., will enter a pretrial diversion program.
Thomas was originally cited on suspicion of failure to yield
after a two-car accident Nov. 30. According to police, just after 11
a.m., Thomas was driving a Nissan Sentra south on South 37th Street
at Sheridan Boulevard when he collided with an eastbound Ford Escort
driven by 66-year-old Joseph E. Brown of Lincoln.
Brown was taken by ambulance to BryanLGH Medical Center East,
where he died Dec. 4.
In an autopsy report dated Jan. 22, a pathologist concluded Brown
died of severe blunt force trauma caused by the accident, Lacey
said.

 The question: The Nebraska football
team is changing its uniforms to a more modern style, including the
possibility of wearing all white on the road and all red at home. Is
this worth a cheer or a boo? Why?
