HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 22-year-old Hutchinson man waived his preliminary hearing and entered a plea to one of six charges.

Tyler Humphries led Reno County sheriff’s deputies on a brief high-speed chase back in October in a stolen vehicle.

He entered a plea to one count of felony flee and elude. The other charges were dropped.

Sheriff’s deputies were looking for the stolen vehicle at a mobile home park in Yoder when Humphries fled east toward Haven. He then turned north to the intersection of Haven Road and Illinois where he got out of the vehicle and waited for deputies to arrive. He then surrendered.

Humphries is serving a sentence for three counts of theft from 2017 and will be sentenced on March 29.
