HARTINGTON, Neb. -- A judge has ruled that prosecutors may use evidence of other potential sexual assaults against the former Randolph, Nebras…
Haug was located later that night, when he rammed a police car in Yankton, South Dakota, in a stolen U-Haul truck and led authorities on a chase across the Missouri River into Nebraska. He was apprehended after a motor vehicle collision in which he was injured.
He was hospitalized for his injuries and was arrested Friday at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha and transported to Cedar County.
Olson, 58, underwent surgery for a stab wound in his upper right abdomen and was treated for cuts on his forehead, left hand and lower left abdomen.
