It was a busy week for Lincoln and Lancaster County law enforcement.

Early Sunday morning, residents of this home on 176th Street reported someone had shot bullet holes into the side of their house.

The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office said the couple awoke to a loud noise outside. When they went to examine their home, they found bullet holes LSO believes came from an assault rifle.

The sheriff's office has no suspects and is still investigating the incident.

Late Tuesday night, there was another armed robbery at a Lincoln restaurant. This time, this Taco Bueno near 84th and Leighton was robbed, according to Lincoln police.

"There was an employee that was allowed to exit the building at the time. Two individuals described as black males, one having a hand gun entered the store and demanded money," Sgt. Don Scheinost, Lincoln Police Department.

Police are looking for a black male, 5' 9". They say he was wearing black clothing and a black rag on his head. The other suspect is also a black male wearing black clothing. Police say he was wearing a red bandanna to cover his face.

Early Wednesday morning, Lincoln police say a man was at a party in the 6800 block of Vine Street.

According to police, he was kicked out of the party for stealing from residents.

"The individual left and then returned a short while later with an aluminum baseball bat. Once he returned, he began a physical confrontation with three other guests at the party," Scheinost said.

"Those three were struck by the bat. There were no serious injuries, however, we are still looking for this individual that assaulted these three people with the baseball bat."

Police are still searching for the suspect.
