HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Reno County Sheriff's Office made an arrest earlier this week on sex crime and kidnapping charges.
Thirty-year-old Mathew W. Morgan of rural Hutchinson was ultimately booked early Wednesday on charges of Aggravated Sodomy, Aggravated Domestic Battery and Aggravated Kidnapping. His bond has been set at $152,500.
According to a department release, the case started Monday evening just before 8:30 p.m. when deputies were sent to a rural residence northwest of Hutchinson for a domestic disturbance. Upon arrival at the residence Deputies spoke with a male who stated the caller to 911 had just left the residence. Upon initial interviews at the scene and further investigation, the specific facts in the report were unclear.
Tuesday morning, detectives began to review information previously gathered about this case and set up further interviews. In this continued investigation, it is believed that several crimes were possibly committed causing the initial call. Ultimately, the male that was spoken to by deputies on the original call was placed under arrest.
As in most cases of this nature, this case is still under investigation.
