Sherrif Wagner reports that the second suspect, Christian Alexander, has died yesterday at 3:30 p.m. The Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office investigation found that the use of deadly force by officers was justified.
The officer-involved was identified as Lincoln Police Officer Jesse Hiliger. He had responded to assist other law enforcement officers and is a 19-year veteran.
After reviewing video surveillance and body camera footage, law enforcement confirms that 30-year-old Stainbrook and 26-year-old Alexander did meet with the initial robbery victim the evening before. They connected via a social media app. The next day Alexander would hold up the victim in a hotel parking lot, ultimately leading to the shootout.
A pursuit of a robbery suspect involving Lincoln police and Nebraska State Patrol vehicles involved the male suspect firing shots at the officers during the chase, officials said.
