Thunder Collins Held Without Bond
A Douglas County judge has ordered a former Nebraska football player facing murder charges held without bail. Twenty-nine-year-old Thunder Collins is facing first-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder and weapons charges.
The charges stem from a shooting Tuesday in midtown Omaha that killed Timothy Thomas and left Marshall Turner critically injured. Douglas County Prosecutor Don Kleine characterized the incident as a drug deal that turned into a robbery.
Karnell Burton also was ordered held without bail. The 20-year-old faces criminal homicide, attempted murder and weapons charges. Both Collins and Burton have preliminary hearings set for November 7th.
