OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Omaha police say an Iowa man has died in a semitrailer crash in eastern Omaha. Police say 26-year-old Richard Anderson III, of Council Bluffs, Iowa, was driving the semitrailer when it rolled onto its side on a ramp entering Interstate 80 and caught fire. Several passers-by attempted to get the driver out of the cab, but couldn’t. Police says diesel fuel spilled and the fire spread quickly, engulfing the truck. Anderson was pronounced dead at the scene by medics. Investigators say the truck had been hauling debris away from Rosenblatt Stadium, the former College World Series baseball venue that is being torn down.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The U.S. Attorney for Nebraska says 13 people have been accused in a federal indictment of conspiring with a Mexican drug cartel to deal methamphetamine in Omaha — including the owner of a south Omaha auto dealer. U.S. Attorney Deborah Gilg (gihlj) said Thursday that 12 of those indicted have been arrested or were already behind bars for other offenses. She said six are in the U.S. illegally. The indictments were announced the same day that officers from eight different law enforcement agencies in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa executed search warrants in the case, including one at Gomez Auto Sales. Gilg says authorities seized 30 cars from the lot, believed to be a front for the drug ring. If convicted, those indicted face up to life in prison.
