SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — A Sioux City man accused of helping to kill a Nebraska man has been given another starting date for his murder trial. Thirty-year-old Daniel Levering has pleaded not guilty to the July 23 slaying of 36-year-old Vincent Walker, who lived in Winnebago, Nebraska. The new date: July 17 in Woodbury County District Court. His other starting dates: Oct. 17, Jan. 23, March 20 and April 17.

Police say Walker was washing his car when he was confronted by three people. Police say the group then assaulted him, with one stabbing him and another hitting him repeatedly with a baseball bat. Walker later died at a Sioux City hospital.

Authorities have not reported the arrests of the two other suspects.
