SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. (AP) - KNEB radio in Scottsbluff (http://bit.ly/JfGhFw ) says the bench trial of 19-year-old Bryan Bloom, of Henry, which had been set for later this month, is now scheduled for June.

Authorities say Bloom was driving a van to Torrington, Wyo., in June 2011 when his passenger, 18-year-old Johrdan Stone, was killed.

Bloom told police he didn't know Scott had been hurt until they arrived at a home in Torrington. Stone died of neck and head injuries.

Officials say Bloom was driving drunk. Court documents show Stone also had been drinking.
