Nebraska troopers find military tank abandoned on Interstate [View all]

OVERTON, Neb. (AP) – It wasn't a typical abandoned vehicle call for the Nebraska State Patrol on Thursday.

A patrol trooper was alerted early Thursday that a large military vehicle was sitting on a parked trailer at the Interstate 80 on-ramp near Overton, patrol spokesman Cody Thomas said.

The trooper determined the tank belonged to the South Dakota National Guard 211th Engineer Company, the Lincoln Journal-Star reported.
