Wilson, Kansas Man Waives Hearing In Two Cases, And May Enter Plea Tuesday

The preliminary hearing didn’t go as expected for a Wilson, Kansas man but not because of a continuance. Scott Lutz waived his right to preliminary hearing, and is expected to enter a plea with all his cases on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old faces a felony charge of theft for being in possession of a stolen 1991 Chevy Pickup, and in another case, he faces a robbery charge for allegedly taking a 1994 Ford Explorer pickup and a cell phone by force. That occurring back on December 25, 2011.

Lutz already faces trial on two separate cases including attempted manufacture of meth and other related charges from a bust on January 2 of this year. He also faces trial for an interference with law enforcement charge, more commonly known as obstruction. The trial for those cases is scheduled for next week.

Lutz was arrested by officers from the Reno County Sheriff’s Office and Buhler Police after a stake out for the suspect at a home at 125 East 9th. He allegedly ran from officers at that home, but was stopped while a passenger in a vehicle in the area of 4th and Buhler Road. When Lutz refused to get out, officers broke the window and removed the subject from the vehicle. He was taken into custody after a brief scuffle.

All of the cases occurring late last year, and early this year in Reno County.

Again, he is expected to enter a plea in all the cases on Tuesday.
