Suspect found guilty in kidnapping case makes threat against police officers

Todd Lloyd 2

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — After the jury found a 32-year-old Hutchinson man guilty of kidnapping Thursday, he may now face additional charges after spouting off in court.

Todd Lloyd allegedly yelled in court that if he got free, he would kill two officers who nearly killed him in the altercation back on April 23. According to witnesses, this happened in open court and District Attorney Keith Schroeder says they’re looking at additional charges.

The two officers, Sgt. Josh Radloff and Sgt. Eric Buller were the two officers involved when Lloyd was holding his girlfriend at knife point in front them after he tried to elude a community corrections officer who wanted him taken into custody on a violation from an earlier case. They came close to shooting him, but held off.

Potential new charges would include criminal threat.

Judge Trish Rose set sentencing in the kidnapping case for November 21.
