TEKAMAH, Neb. (AP) -
A judge has ordered a Nebraska woman to stand trial in a crash that killed her 4-year-old son near Lyons in Burt County.
Twenty-four-year-old Megan Douglas, of Oakland, was driving on U.S. Highway 77 when authorities say she lost control of her car and collided with another vehicle on Jan. 11. Her son, Zachery, was killed.
Investigators say Douglas was driving drunk and speeding.
A judge on Tuesday ordered her to stand trial on motor vehicular homicide and child abuse, both felonies. The judge dropped seven misdemeanor charges and lowered her bond from $200,000 to $50,000.
Another hearing is set for April.
