An off-duty Omaha police officer was wounded Monday morning in what's being called an "accidental shooting" northeast of Bennington.

An official source said Officer Ben Weidner went to a farm near North 156th Street and Pawnee Road where he routinely goes, with the property owner's permission, to dump yard waste.

Weidner showed up earlier than usual, just before 10 a.m. The property owner was apparently startled by someone unexpectedly being on his land and when he went to check, the gun fired, wounding the officer in the abdomen. Weidner's mother, who is the nurse, was with him at the time and provided medical attention before he was taken to Nebraska Medcine in stable condition.

The property owner was taken in for questioning and is said to be cooperating with the investigation. No charges have been filed.
