Lincoln man pleads no contest to shooting at party

LINCOLN, Neb. — A Lincoln man accused of firing a gun outside a party, accidentally hitting two friends, has pleaded no contest to terrorist threats.

The Lincoln Journal Star (http://bit.ly/Idp4rA) says 21-year-old Alen Sljivo entered his plea this week in Lancaster County District Court. Sentencing is on May 22.

The shooting happened last October. Police were called to a hospital emergency room about two shooting victims. Both had been hit in the leg.

Police say a witness told officers that Sljivo went to his car, got a gun and fired twice in the direction of a house, hitting his two friends. Sljivo drove them to the hospital.
