A Cheyenne man has pleaded Not Guilty in Torrington to 4 felony counts in a fatal rollover accident last June just west of the Nebraska-Wyoming state line that killed 2 Scottsbluff teenagers and injured 2 other teens.

22 year old Ethan Kaufman remains free on $50,000 bail on 2 counts of aggravated homicide by a vehicle and 2 counts of drunk driving causing serious bodily injury. No trial date has been scheduled.

Alexis Wheeler and Hallie Anderson…both students at Western Nebraska Community College…were killed while Tyler Hill of Lyman and Stetson Allen of Morrill…both 19…were seriously injured in the accident. All were riding with Kaufman.

Testimony at Kaufman’s preliminary hearing included evidence and witness statements that showed he was legally intoxicated and traveling 99 mph at the time of the accident, and that he may have been texting on his cell phone just prior to losing control of his pickup.
