Hutch woman busted for aggravated robbery and drug charges

Jail Cell

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A local woman remains jailed and faces possible charges of aggravated robbery, possession of methamphetamine and marijuana.

Kimber Lynn Thomas is accused of sending a text to a Hutchinson man where he was then allegedly beat up by Cody Curl, who is well known to law enforcement. Curl is accused of waiting for the victim to show up.

The victim, Joshua Holmes, suffered a laceration to his forehead and items in his pockets flew out during the struggle, according to statements made to police.

They apparently found most of the items in a safe at a home in the 300 block of Woodard.

Holmes apparently contacted police from Planet Fitness on East 4th.

Police Lt. Marty Robertson says this started from an early incident where Holmes apparently burned a coat belonging to a friend of Curl who is deceased.

Curl has not been arrested so far with the information being forwarded to the District Attorney’s Office for consideration of charges.

Thomas was arrested and denied a bond reduction when she appeared in court. Bond was set at $56,000. She’ll be back in court next week.
