VALENTINE, Neb. (AP) - An armed 56-year-old Valentine man has been shot and killed by police.
Cherry County Attorney Eric Scott confirmed reports that Gary Connot (CONN-ut) was killed early Tuesday morning in Valentine after officers responded to a call from the home of Connot's ex-wife.
It was unclear whether Connot pointed a gun at officers or fired at them.
Connot was not allowed to be at his ex-wife's home following a January incident where he held her at gunpoint.
Connot, a rancher from the Valentine area, was out on bond.
He was scheduled to be sentenced in October for charges stemming from the January incident.
