OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Police say a passenger in a pickup that careened off an interstate ramp in Omaha has died of his injuries. 19-year-old Matthew A. Doty, of Council Bluffs, was one of three people in the pickup that crashed about 6:15-p.m. Friday. Doty was thrown from the truck and declared dead at the scene. Police say the driver of the truck, 30-year-old Evan Shiplett, of Zanesville, Ohio, lost control as he exited Interstate 480 in eastern Omaha, and the truck rolled.

Police say Shiplett was taken to the University of Nebraska Medical Center in critical condition with non-life-threatening injuries. Police said another passenger, 18-year-old Jacob R. Levene of Neola, walked to a nearby store to call for help. He was transported to a hospital by a third party. His injuries are not life-threatening. None of the three men were wearing their seat belts.

Authorities say alcohol, speed and reckless driving were contributing factors in the crash. Charges are currently pending.

The Council Bluffs Police Department reports a shooting at approximately 1:35am Saturday (9/7) morning near the intersection of 34th Avenue and South 24th Street.  Shots were fired from an unknown vehicle which was traveling north on South 24th Street and one of the rounds struck 31-year-old Leo Guajardo of Omaha, NE as he was driving his vehicle in the same direction as the unknown shooter.  The round struck Guajardo in the left side of the face.

Guajardo was transported to University Hospital by private vehicle and is currently in critical but stable condition with non life threatening injuries. Witnesses reported hearing 6-7 shots during the incident as the vehicles sped towards Interstate 80. The investigation is ongoing.

No injuries were reported following a rollover accident Friday afternoon, in Montgomery County. The Sheriff’s Office reports a 2003 Ford Ranger pickup driven by 17-year old Jacob Ballard, of Red Oak, was traveling north on J Avenue at around 3:50-p.m., when the vehicle went out of control and into a ditch before rolling onto its top. The accident happened as Ballard was attempting to turn east onto 160th Street. Officials say the pickup was traveling too fast when the accident occurred.

Damage to the pickup, owned by Chad Harold, of Red Oak, was estimated at $5,000. Ballard was cited for Failure to Maintain Control and for Violating the terms of his instruction permit. The Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene by Red Oak Fire and Rescue.
