Stimka Held On Charge Of Plot To Kill Wife
County Attorney R P Kepler filed charges of shooting with intent to kill against Ernest Stimka whom police say tried to kill his wife and himself on June 30. Stimka, hospitalized since the shooting, likely will be moved to the county jail today. His wife Bertha, believed critically wounded, was released from hospital Friday and is convalescing at her parents home. The case notes Stimka lured his wife to his car at the Buettner home in Keith county under pretense of bringing clothes, then fired with a .22 cal gun. An attempted shooting of their daughter failed when the gun misfired. Stimka then shot himself twice, narrowly missing his heart. Mrs Stimka received a transfusion before hospital transfer. Divorce papers had been served on Stimka earlier that week. Stimka, from a Cheyenne County family, previously lived in Sunol.
