A 42-year-old Hutchinson man convicted of attempted rape was scheduled to be sentenced Friday, but that has now been continued to October 10.

Larry Frye, Jr., was originally arrested for allegedly raping of a 27-year-old Hutchinson woman, but entered a “guilty” plea to an amended charge of attempted rape as part of a plea agreement with the state.

He was accused of raping the woman on New Years Day at a home here in Hutchinson. The case starts with the victim going to Hutchinson Regional Medical Center for treatment after the the incident and hospital officials contacted police. The victim didn’t know Frye, with her room-mate apparently bringing him to the home. It was early morning on New Years Day when the alleged encounter occurred.

When the sentencing occurs in October, it will be in front of Judge Joe McCarville.
