The preliminary hearing for a woman who was arrested after fatally crashing head-on to a couple in Saline County, has been rescheduled to March.
According to the Saline County Attorney's office, a two-day hearing for Kayla Errebo (33) will occur on March 10 & 11 at the Salina-Saline County building (300 W Ash St).
This decision was made on December 15, as part of a joint motion from both the defense and state attorneys, for the reason of needing more time to prepare for an accident reconstruction report.
Initially, Errebo's hearing was scheduled for January 5.
Errebo was arrested back on Friday, August 8th for a head-on collision into Mark Sommerfeld (61) and Deanna Sommerfeld (55) on a rural Saline County road. Errebo fled from the crash site, but deputies located and arrested her at an address in Ellsworth with her grandfather, Dennis Katzenmeier.
Deanna Sommerfeld was pronounced dead at the scene.

He was released on bond that same day.
Errebo is booked into the Saline County Jail and is currently facing requested charges of:
Murder in the second degree, Failure to report an injury accident, Circumvention of ignition interlock device and Probation violation.
Errebo also plead guilty back on October 2024 for fleeing and eluding law enforcement, driving under the influence (DUI) and leaving the scene of an accident.
