Knife-wielding Oklahoma man holds three hostages in Omaha siege
Jimmy Green, 31, of Pawnee, Oklahoma, held three patrons at knifepoint for nearly 17 hours in Whitcomb's Tavern before Omaha police stormed the bunker-like tavern. One hostage was slain, another wounded, and two others escaped unharmed as officers moved in after Green’s brothers spotted a victim on the floor with a throat wound. The tavern’s owner’s wife, Rosemary Akiens, was gravely injured, and a part-time employee, Phyllis Umage, was seized while leaving to fetch weapons. The siege ended with Green in custody and all hostages accounted for. Mayor Edward Zorinsky blamed drug influence for the assailant’s actions.
