Man arrested for fatal hit-and-run

Authorities have arrested a 54-year-old man
suspected in a hit-and-run crash in southeast Nebraska that fatally injured a
woman and her teenage stepdaughter.

The two died Sunday night after a sport utility vehicle and a pickup truck
collided on U.S. Highway 75 near Nebraska City. Authorities identified the two
as 32-year-old Rachel Curry and 15-year-old Chloe Curry. They lived in Auburn
with Rachel Curry's husband, 39-year-old Michael Curry, who was driving the
pick-up. He was taken for treatment at St. Mary's Hospital in Nebraska City.

Authorities say the SUV driver received a ride from the crash scene and was
later found in Falls City . He was arrested on suspicion of vehicular homicide
and leaving the scene of a fatal crash. Court records don't show he's been
formally charged.
