Officers were dispatched to a residence near Northwest Sixth and West Sally streets at about 3 p.m. on a report from a 28-year-old tow truck driver who was trying to repossess a vehicle when its owner, 49-year-old Demond Flowers, of Lincoln, confronted him with a gun, Capt. Todd Kocian said.

Trey Coley Lusk as Barbie Esther (center) and the rest of the cast rehearse a musical performance for the Barbie Megillah Purim Spiel on Thursday, April 4, 2024, at South Street Temple. Purim takes place annually on the 14th day of the Hebrew month Adar. This year, Purim was observed on March 23 and 24. The holiday surrounds Queen Esther, a Hebrew woman who saved the Jewish people from a royal official named Haman. Every year, Jewish communities around the world read the Megillah of Esther, a scroll detailing the story of Esther’s heroics. South Street Temple will be presenting Barbie Megillah directed by Zoë Watch and written by Jaime Marx. The performance will combine the story of Esther with themes from the 2023 hit film Barbie.
Trey Lamkins, a horticulture major at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, rubs his head after seeing his new look for the first time during the Shave for the Brave event at the Willa Cather Dining Complex on City Campus on Thursday. Twelve UNL students shaved their heads to raise funds to help find cures for children with cancer. Lamkins' mother passed away last August. "Though she's no longer with us, her spirit fuels my determination to make a difference in the lives of those still fighting," he wrote. Around $6,000 was raised ahead of the event at UNL, which has put on the event for the last seven years. The donations will go to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, but the hair will be donated to the Matter of Trust, which uses the donated hair to clean up oil spills and make goods such as burlap sacks and stockings.
