(BANNER COUNTY, Neb.) -- The wind continued to blow through the weekend, and on Sunday, around 10:15 am, the Banner County Volunteer Fire Department was notified of a grass fire, 9 miles west of Highway 71 on Highway 88, and 1 mile north. Due to the high winds and potential for spreading, mutual aid was requested from Lyman, Kiowa, LaGrange Fire, and Scottsbluff Rural Fire. The fire was determined to be sparks from a downed power line. Seventy-six acres of grass were burned, as well as a quarter mile of fence.
(BOX BUTTE COUNTY, Neb.) -- And did you hear about the trooper fighting with a subject? Well, broken-scanner traffic under windy conditions on Friday indicated a trooper possibly fighting with a subject who had drugs in their mouth. After reviewing traffic, we did indeed have a trooper successfully preventing a suspect from swallowing methamphetamine that was found parked on the side of the road since 4 am. In the end, we had one subject 10-15, or under arrest.
