LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A Montana man dubbed the AK-47 bandit and accused of holding up banks in several states has pleaded guilty to robbing a bank in Nebraska. Richard Gathercole could face up to 35 years in prison after admitting Monday in federal court that he used an AK-47 to rob a Nebraska City bank in 2014. The 40-year-old Gathercole also pleaded guilty to a 2017 carjacking that led to his arrest.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Woods says the plea deal stipulates that Gathercole won’t be prosecuted by other jurisdictions for other violent crimes, including the shooting of a Kansas state trooper in 2017 and bank robberies in California, Idaho, Iowa and Washington state. Some of the crimes had passed the five-year federal statute of limitations. Gathercole is scheduled for sentencing in June.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — A judge has rescheduled the trial of a Sioux City man accused of killing his roommate. Woodbury County District Court records say 39-year-old Abdiqadar Sharif had been set to go on trial next Tuesday. He’s pleaded not guilty to a charge of second-degree murder in the Oct. 28 slaying of 40-year-old Guled Nur. The records say the defense and prosecution asked for more time to prepare for the trial, so last week the judge set a new starting date of July 30. Prosecutors say Sharif stabbed and kicked Nur after an altercation broke out at their apartment.
