Minden resident Elise Hinton reported dead in Nebraska accident

SIDNEY, Neb. - Nebraska authorities are still investigating a collision

on Interstate 80 that claimed the life of a 49-year-old Nevada woman.

Cheyenne County Attorney Paul Schaub said Tuesday that no citations

have been issued to the driver of the motorcycle or the semitrailer that

collided Sunday afternoon east of Sidney.

The Nebraska State Patrol says 45-year-old Alfred Christian was driving the

motorcycle carrying him and Elise Hinton when its front tire went flat.

The patrol says Christian lost control of the bike, and it hit the side of

the semi driven by 52-year-old Kenneth Brown, of St. Paris, Ohio. Brown was

not hurt.

Hinton died at the scene. The patrol says Christian was flown to Scottsbluff

for treatment.

They're both from Minden.
