(AP) — A white Nebraska man described as reclusive and confrontational shot and wounded seven neighbors who are Guatemalan immigrants, and investigators said they are not ruling out racist motives. The victims, who are related and include four children ages 3 to 10, are expected to survive. The shootings shook Crete, a diverse community of about 7,000 residents about 70 miles southwest of Omaha. Booth largely kept to himself but had a history of conflict with his neighbors when he did interact with them, the Omaha World-Herald reported. Neighbors said Booth butted heads with white neighbors on his street, too.
