Man just paroled in July jailed for attempted robbery

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 25-year-old man who was paroled in July is in more trouble after he tried to grab a purse from a woman outside Dillons at 725 E. 4th.

Trae Taylor is jailed for attempted robbery with a bond of $10,000. He was arrested just after 11 a.m. Wednesday in Hutchinson.

The incident happened around 5:15 p.m. Tuesday as the victim was walking into the store. He grabbed her purse with so much force that it knocked her to ground. She held on and was dragged five to six feet. This caused some bruising. She managed to hold on and he finally gave up and ran away.

The incident was caught on store video, which police used to locate him.

Taylor was on parole for a conviction of indecent liberties for a case in Sedgwick County.

He should make an initial court appearance Thursday morning.
