Woman believed dead found alive at Nebraska funeral home
A 74-year-old Nebraska woman who was believed to be dead was discovered alive at a funeral home after showing signs of life, authorities said Monday.
Emergency crews were called to Butherus Maser & Love Funeral Home in Lincoln at about 11:45 a.m. after people there began performing CPR on the woman.
“This is a very unusual case,” Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Ben Houchin told reporters. “I’ve been doing this 31 years and nothing like this has ever gotten to this point before.”

The woman was originally at an unspecified nursing home where she was pronounced dead and then transported to the funeral home, Houchin said. She was in hospice in the nursing home.
At some point, a funeral home employee placed the woman’s body on a table and realized “that she was breathing,” Houchin said. The employee called 911 and police, fire and medical personnel responded.
She was then taken to a hospital. She was alive as of Monday afternoon. An investigation is underway to determine what happened.
“At this point, we have not been able to find any criminal intent by the nursing home,” said Houchin, who said he was unsure if any laws were broken.

“Very busy, very crowded the bars and restaurants,” said Ashley Evans. “That’d be great to add to the city again, to continue to bring more tourists out.”

“Our goal to grow as a city means that a lot of things have to happen. This is the very, tiny, small work that has to happen,” said Gary Witt, president and CEO of The Pabst Theater Group, which runs six nearby venues.
“The introduction of any new business in the city, especially one that pays attention to the fact that we have spent 24 years growing the live culture economy in the city of Milwaukee, says to me that we’ve done our job.”
Witt said live entertainment is an industry Milwaukee’s economy has been dependent on coming from visitors like those who turned out Friday.
