    Sexual Assault
A 27-year-old woman was sexu
ally assaulted at Union College,
3800 S. 48th St., Thursday night.
Lincoln Police Sgt. Ann
Heermann said the woman was
playing a piano in the basement of
a building on campus. A man came
up behind her and knocked her to
the ground. He then punched her
face and sexually assaulted her.
Police were called to Bryan Me
morial Hospital where she was
treated for cuts and scrapes.
She described the man to police
as thin- to medium-build, 5 feet 7
inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall. She
said the man’s face was hidden by
a dark blue or black ski mask.
Larceny/Forcery
Police discovered a chain of lar
ceny and forgery last week that
started Jan. 14 when several check
books and stereo equipment were
stolen out of cars on the 1500 block
of South Folsom Street, Heermann
said.
On Jan. 15, someone attempted
to write a check from one of the
stolen checkbooks at Super Kmart
Center, 3300 N. 27th St., but a clerk
recognized the name on the check
and knew it was not the man try
ing to write the check. The clerk
attempted to stall him, but the man
said he had to get his identifica
tion from his vehicle and did not
return.
The man also wrote a forged
check for $160 at Best Communi
cations, 3300 O St. On Jan. 28, four
checks returned to the United
Northeast Bank of Ord had been
forged. On Feb. 1, nine more
checks were forged.
On Wednesday, a vehicle
thought to be that of the thieves was
observed at 14th Street and Pio
neers Boulevard and was pulled
over for not having license plates.
A man and woman were in the car.
Inside, police found stolen ste
reo equipment and a graphic equal
izer with the serial numbers re
moved. The suspect, 19-year-old
Michael Winters, was arrested for
possession of stolen property and
forgery. The woman has not yet
been charged.
Police later searched the
woman’s residence and found more
stolen property, including elec
tronic equipment, a .20-gauge shot
gun, and a semi-automatic pistol,
which was reported stolen between
Dec. 12 and 13.
RODEO from page 1
from Sebeka, Minn., sat on a table,
icing his thigh. Stripped of his hat and
boots, he sat staring down at the ice
on his leg.
He said he got too good of a foot
hold with his spurs, the bull jerked,
and he pulled a muscle in his leg.

Riders hop back into saddle
you are doing. And they really want
to get better,” Livergood said. “If they
don’t ride, they don’t get paid.”
Foster said he got started as an ath
letic trainer for cowboys when he and
a friend were putting on chute semi
nars for Little Britches rodeos. He said
the seminars taught children how to
mount a bull or bronc properly and
safely. They branched out from there
and began teaching children about
treating minor injuries.
