">A Lincoln man remains in jail for driving on a 15 year suspended driver's license and reckless driving. Investigators say 36 year old Eric Knutson led Lincoln police on a high speed chase early Tuesday morning, reaching speeds of 65 miles per hour. Near 38th and E Streets, Knutson drove his van over a curb and through a yard. He ditched his car at Elks Field near Sumner Street and Normal Boulevard. Knutson was tracked down by a K-9 Unit, hiding behind a tree. Aside from traffic-related charges, Knutson was also cited for having a small amount of marijuana and a pipe."
">A 28-year-old Lincoln man accused of stabbing a man to death last year faces more charges. Joshua Albright entered a not guilty plea in Lancaster County Court on Thursday in addition to the original charges, including assault and use of a deadly weapon. He's accused of stabbing Benjamin Miller to death in a fight over a woman. Albright's attorney, John Hoppe, says his client killed Miller in self-defense. He says a jury needs to decide the case. The trial starts June 10th."
">A train slammed into an empty truck early Tuesday evening just outside Hickman at 54th and Hickman Road. The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office says the driver of the pickup got out just before the train hit it. The man was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The truck is totaled...the train had about $5,000 in damage."
">A 43-year-old man faces arson charges, after he allegedly set another man's car on fire near 27th and "E" Street early Sunday morning. Hung Nguyen faces a charge of third-degree arson, a class four felony, for his part in setting a 1995 Toyota Camery on fire, following an argument he had with another man. Lincoln Police say Nguyen and the victim were arguing over the sale of another vehicle just before the other car was set on fire. Investigators were also out at the same duplex late Saturday night to settle down the same two men that were fighting. The Camery, worth $1,200 based on Kelley Blue Book values, is a total loss."
