Nebraska City driver convicted for fatal injury

A driver has been convicted in the death of a man fatally injured in a collision on a southeast Nebraska highway.
Nemaha County District Court records say 53-year-old Monty Eaton, of Nebraska City, was found guilty Thursday of manslaughter and two counts of transporting a child while intoxicated. His sentencing is scheduled for July 22.
Authorities say Eaton was driving with two children when he turned his sport utility vehicle into a car that was trying to pass his February 3 last year on U.S. Highway 75 north of Auburn. A passenger in the car, 26-year-old Travis Ries, was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
