WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A Mexican woman who tried to hide a gun her boyfriend used to fatally shoot a Kansas teenager has been deported.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Brent Anderson said Wednesday that prosecutors got confirmation that 22-year-old Azucena Garcia-Ferniza was deported Friday.

Garcia-Ferniza was sentenced in December to the 15 months she had been in custody after pleading guilty.

Court documents say she legally entered the U.S. at the age of 3, but her visitor visa expired in 1998. She had been granted a work permit under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

Seventeen-year-old Allie Saum was killed in 2015 in Salina while riding in a pickup truck mistaken for someone else’s truck.

Garcia-Ferniza’s boyfriend, Macio Palacio Jr., has been sentenced to more than 50 years in prison.

SIDNEY, Iowa (AP) — At least three students have been injured in a collision between a school bus and a pickup truck near the front of a school in southwest Iowa.

Authorities say the collision occurred around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday at the Sidney Junior/Senior High School in Sidney.

District Superintendent Gregg Cruickshank says the bus had just left the grounds to take seven students to vocational classes in Sidney when the oncoming pickup swerved across the street and hit the bus.

Cruickshank says a student driving the pickup was flown to an Omaha, Nebraska, hospital for treatment. The superintendent says the bus driver and two boys on the bus were taken to a local hospital as a precaution.

Cruickshank declined to release any names. He said classes continued as scheduled Wednesday.

MARSHFIELD, Mo. (AP) — A southwest Missouri prison supervisor has been charged with pushing a female employee into a cell while she resisted.

The Springfield News-Leader reports Johnny Burkdoll, 56, was charged Tuesday with false imprisonment. No attorney is listed for him in online court records.

The probable cause statement says Burkdoll called the employee to his office in July before telling her to enter a segregation unit to see her boyfriend, who also worked at the Ozark Correctional Center in Fordland. A segregation unit is used to house prisoners separately from others.

The statement says the employee tried to get away as Burkdoll placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her down the hall of the minimum-security facility.

Burkdoll later acknowledged to an investigator pushing the employee into the cell.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have charged a Grand Island woman for not letting someone stop a fight between her teenage daughter and another girl.

Court records say the 36-year-old woman is charged with felony intentional child abuse. The Associated Press is not naming her in order to preserve the privacy of her daughter. The AP generally doesn’t name juveniles accused of crimes.

Authorities say the woman’s 15-year-old daughter and a 13-year-old girl had agreed to fight each other. The older girl got the upper hand and began choking her opponent. Police say the woman wouldn’t let a bystander pull the girls apart or stop her daughter from choking the other girl.

Police say the 15-year-old will be charged with strangulation. The younger girl will be charged with mutual consent assault.

GENEVA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say they’ve captured all 11 girls who escaped from the state’s Youth Rehabilitation and Treatment Center in Geneva.

The Nebraska Health and Human Services Department said Tuesday night that two girls left the grounds around 5:30 p.m. The department says a fire alarm was pulled around 7:30 p.m., which unlocked doors in a cottage and allowed nine more girls to flee the campus.

The department said Wednesday morning that all the girls were back in custody and returned to the Fillmore County facility by 2 a.m. Wednesday.

The department says an investigation will be undertaken to find out what policies or procedures should be changed to prevent future escapes.

HALSTEAD, Kan. (AP) — A former southern Kansas police chief has entered a no contest plea to two misdemeanors involving the theft of ammunition from the town of Halstead.

The Wichita Eagle reports that a 60-day jail sentence was suspended after Steven Lewis agreed to pay $1,255 in restitution to the city, $230 in court costs and to surrender his law enforcement certification.

In exchange for the plea, the Harvey County prosecutor dismissed a felony charge alleging Lewis misused public funds.

The charges against Lewis arose after a KBI investigation found that Lewis deposited into his personal bank account checks meant to reimburse the city for ammunition he ordered for private individuals. Halstead’s former city administrator is facing a felony perjury charge. He’s accused of failing to disclose the reason for Lewis’ retirement.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa House subcommittee approved a bill that would legalize medical marijuana oil and create a state-run program to grow and dispense the product.

People affected by epileptic seizures, multiple sclerosis and cancer spoke Wednesday in support of the bill, telling lawmakers cannabis oil helped them.

The GOP-led panel unanimously supported the bill, which now moves to the House public safety committee.

The Iowa Department of Public Health would run the program, and an agency official said it was important participants receive license cards.

Rep. Jared Klein, a Republican from Keota, noted the legislation doesn’t legalize recreational marijuana but only allows cannabis oil for medical treatment. He says 28 states have passed similar bills.

Iowa approved a marijuana oil program in 2014 for treatment of epilepsy. It expires this summer.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri lawmakers are considering proposals to update state driver’s licensing procedures to comply with federal law.

The House voiced initial approval Tuesday for a bill that would bring licenses into compliance with the federal Real ID Act signed in 2005 by President George W. Bush. The Real ID law bolstered proof-of-identification requirements in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Opponents of the act have voiced privacy concerns over a provision requiring states to keep license holders’ personal information. Current Missouri law prohibits the state from complying with Real ID.

Without complaint licenses, Missourians won’t be able to use state identification to board airplanes or visit some federal facilities starting in January 2018.

The Senate is expected to debate a similar measure this week.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — A 14-year-old boy is recovering from non-life-threatening injuries after being hit by a train in suburban St. Louis.

Authorities told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the boy was wearing headphones while walking along the tracks in south St. Louis County Sunday evening.

He was struck, but not run over, by a Burlington Northern freight train. Police say the boy was able to walk to an ambulance.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A foundation has raised about $25,000 for a Wichita police officer who was hit by a fleeing driver.

The Wichita Eagle reports that $10,000 already has gone to the family of Brian Arterburn. He sustained injuries to his chest, abdomen and brain when he was struck Feb. 7 while putting tire-deflating spike strips on a road. A 31-year-old man is charged.

Honore Adversis Foundation president and founder Paul Zamorano says the other $15,000 – and 100 percent of all funds received in the future – will go to the family when they need it. Zamorano says fundraising efforts have drawn “an overwhelming response” and that the $25,000 may not include all proceeds from various restaurant and business fundraisers.

The foundation is an affiliate of the Wichita police union.
