A Sept. 8 trial is set for a former Nebraska auto dealership executive accused in the disappearance of more than 80 cars from a Scottsbluff car lot.

Rick Covello, Legacy Auto's former general manager, earlier this week pleaded not guilty to 86 felony counts. That includes 10 counts of theft and 76 counts of attempted theft.

He and two other executives were arrested in March on suspicion of theft after the missing cars and trucks, worth more than $2.5 million, were found in Utah, Wyoming, Las Vegas and Scottsbluff.

Covello remains free on bond.
