Man arrested in Hebron shooting pleads not guilty

A man arrested in connection to a deadly shooting in Hebron pleaded not guilty in court Tuesday morning. 

The Nebraska State Patrol says Michael Lewis, 21, of Hebron, was arrested for the shooting death of Remington Elting, 28, on October 27. 

Reuben Elting, 33, was flown to Bryan West hospital in Lincoln in critical condition. 

Lewis pleaded not guilty in Thayer County Court to charges of first degree assault and use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony.

The series of events began with a disturbance between multiple parties at approximately 1:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 27 at a residence at 200 North Elm Street in Davenport.

That incident prompted another at approximately 3:20 a.m. at a residence at 625 Jefferson Avenue in Hebron.

Authorities say during the second incident, the two men were shot.

Additional charges could be added pending further investigation, officials say.
