Our DCSO Team is proud to work collaboratively with the Natural Resources District to ensure safety at Douglas County's numerous lakes, waterways, and trails. Last night, a Deputy was checking in at an NRD Elkhorn River recreation site and came into contact with Ronald BOOZE, age 61.
Mr. BOOZE recently had a felony arrest warrant issued for absconding from parole. BOOZE was on parole after serving a partial prison sentence after being convicted of:
▪ Felon in possession of a firearm
▪ Possession of a controlled substance
BOOZE was booked into the Douglas County Department of Corrections on his warrant. Anyone who came into contact with BOOZE and has information regarding his activities since his warrant was issued on May 27 is asked to contact the DCSO Tip line at 402-444-6000 or [email protected]. BOOZE is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Meet Siouxsie 🐾
This a lovable 3-year-old pup has a heart as big as her smile. Siouxsie arrived at the Nebraska Humane Society after being hit by a car. She spent some time in foster care recovering and has made a remarkable comeback. Now she just needs to find the forever family she deserves.
Siouxsie is the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. She loves spending time with her favorite toys, exploring the world around her, and burning off her energy, but she's just as content curling up on the couch for cuddles at the end of the day. She can be strong on the leash when she's excited, but she responds well to redirection and never misses an opportunity to hand out kisses to her favorite people.
Siouxsie would thrive in a home with space to play, plenty of toys, and a family ready to shower her with love and treats. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with fun and affection, Siouxsie may be the perfect addition to your family.
If Siouxsie isn't the perfect dog for you, don't worry, the Nebraska Humane Society has several other great pets waiting for you to come see them.
