A former Stanton County commissioner has been arrested for allegedly living in a district other than the one he was elected to represent.

The AP says William Goodpasture was arrested on Friday on a warrant for false candidate filing. Sheriff Mike Unger says Goodpasture was taken to the Pierce County jail. Unger says a hearing is set for March 1.

Goodpasture's case is not on the online court system, and it's not known if he has an attorney.

Goodpasture resigned in October.

The charges were filed by Knox County Attorney John Thomas, who
was appointed special prosecutor following an investigation by the
Nebraska State Patrol into complaints to the Nebraska attorney
general's office.
