The Hot Sheets: December 26th, 2024

&nbsp;(Ogallala, Neb.)&nbsp;&nbsp;— Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol have arrested two people following two pursuits in western Nebraska.

Sunday, at approximately 12:40 a.m. MT, troopers were notified that the Ogallala Police Department was in pursuit of a Toyota sedan westbound on Highway 30. A trooper joined the pursuit as the vehicle exited Ogallala westbound. The vehicle continued westbound with speeds over 130 miles per hour until it reached Big Springs. The vehicle then turned south on Highway 138 and then began fleeing eastbound on Interstate 80.

As the pursuit continued eastbound, a Keith County deputy was able to deploy stop sticks to slow the vehicle, but the driver continued fleeing. The vehicle eventually exited I-80 at mile marker 133 and drove off the road, coming to a stop in the ditch. The driver then fled on foot but was quickly apprehended.

The driver, Christoper Mitchell, 26, of Sarasota, Florida, was arrested for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, obstructing a peace officer, resisting arrest, criminal mischief, and traffic violations. Mitchell was lodged in Keith County Jail. The Ogallala Police Department is the investigating agency.

Monday, at approximately 2:00 p.m. CT, a trooper observed a Ford Edge driving westbound at over 100 miles per hour on Highway 2 near Dunning. The trooper attempted a traffic stop, but the driver refused to yield and accelerated. The trooper initiated a pursuit.

As the vehicle approached Thedford, another trooper successfully deployed stop sticks to slow the vehicle. The driver then pulled over and came to a stop. Troopers took the driver into custody without further incident.

The driver, Jeffrey Zitek, 58, of Grand Island, was arrested for willful reckless driving, flight to avoid arrest, and traffic violations. He was lodged in Custer County Jail.

The Mega Millions jackpot starts at $20 million and continues to grow each drawing until it is won. There have been 29 consecutive Mega Millions drawings since September 13 without a jackpot winner.

The Nebraska Lottery began offering Mega Millions in March of 2010. The largest Mega Millions jackpot on record occurred in August 2023 when one ticket was sold in Florida for a $1.602 billion jackpot.

Mega Millions jackpot winners have two options for collecting their payment: 30 annuity payments or one cash payment at present value. The annuity option provides annual payments that increase each year. The present cash value is less than the advertised jackpot, which is based on the 29-year annuity option. Winning Mega Millions numbers are announced every Tuesday and Friday at 10:00 p.m. Central Time and posted at the Nebraska Lottery website,&nbsp;<a href="https://link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com/ls/click?upn=u001.iAuI3qUyZqtRffZQ3zfUpzpNzmNSojhgdRv9EpaRm6-2BsU-2BqvsgP5YyAt9wOpVtfjwgS-_zp2viNv8WmCDmvKbS8g-2FumCH-2BSIkHTUhcISA1gweg93LIwGEu7Eu0ohNOhpJ1nCtJT3xXLcGnwndj0t64QaXbVDk0wvL65KD1iN4vYB7rKAhKu1l-2FBLlTpj0KgRYXUJn9PKo-2FtgX4cXBz41YWrDXHLWze7Ek2dAnj1YAsF7ECrrwEoIZHfXm6O0pRJ6UTitR8rvux-2Fw8JZLgFDrD1krJploA4VABn4hIim92-2FFYO1vIrNAzSBeJ6KUe9kxilbZ9StBb1eWqqfivhqK2FaMbQfqaoIUOETXGVOqfAiYWfMJYWzaucQMuIO4reGHB17JmRzsEYgVytI5bBNMwmtA-2BojSv5b5BIzJupILpC9ulPt4iEk3P0GRGJhTOOTfv-2F3rOrDkXeZpxLOMv7pEZ0d4uqjg-3D-3D" target="_blank">nelottery.com</a>.

Because of the high jackpot, the Nebraska Lottery encourages customers to set limits and play within their means. “It’s important for Nebraska Lottery players to remember that no matter how large the Mega Millions jackpot is, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302 million,” said Lottery Director Brian Rockey. “Your odds of winning remain the same, regardless of how many tickets are purchased or how many people play.” Visit&nbsp;<a href="https://link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com/ls/click?upn=u001.qkacV-2FUEFnhDrHGFtQlhVCGW7ZFoOjGhEOuDYk17Wg-2FqipgdhZLyD2cmoNUHZNZ9eEem_zp2viNv8WmCDmvKbS8g-2FumCH-2BSIkHTUhcISA1gweg93LIwGEu7Eu0ohNOhpJ1nCtJT3xXLcGnwndj0t64QaXbVDk0wvL65KD1iN4vYB7rKAhKu1l-2FBLlTpj0KgRYXUJn9PKo-2FtgX4cXBz41YWrDXHLWze7Ek2dAnj1YAsF7ECrrwEoIZHfXm6O0pRJ6UTitR8rvux-2Fw8JZLgFDrD1krJploA4VABn4hIim92-2FFYO1vJCnfy0DCmN4MDBHnhAbv5F-2Bdxaupon84gWKlTllF69IaAu-2Bwfn1A8duOmAwR7zPdUBhXrFElCwuG94xBAwVr3hFrcAbI6fvyCqJ5CYbvYBD1-2BkbqqWqRgU-2BrnyPUg0O5VpiHTS8u-2By-2FOegR3-2Fq8M6M5BgszC5IeAzk8uBwYRkQgg-3D-3D" target="_blank">nelottery.com/knowyourlimit</a>&nbsp;for more information on setting limits on your lottery play.

Back by popular demand, Nebraska Extension will be hosting another round of the Fundamentals of Feeding the Cow webinar series in January.

It made the material easier to apply to our own scenarios. I will absolutely do another program if you offer one! The sessions were a good length, long enough to get though material but not so long as to lose interest. Thank you so much for providing resources we can continue to use in the future after the sessions are over!”

The series will be held Monday and Thursday evenings, January 27, 30, February 3, and 6, from 7:30 - 8:45 p.m. CT.
