Reckless Driving Report Precedes Deputy’s Discharge of Firearm Following Action By Potentially Dangerous Dog

On Thursday, June 15th at about 6 p.m., a deputy with the Nemaha County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to the area of 8th and N Streets in Auburn regarding a complaint of a reckless driver.
