(KNZA)--A Sabetha man has pleaded “ no contest” to charges in three separate cases as part of a plea agreement.
23-year-old Harvey Webster, Jr. entered the plea last week in Nemaha County District Court to charges of criminal threat, battery against a law enforcement officer, possession of stolen property and two counts of distribution of methamphetamine. In exchange for the plea, six additional charges were dismissed.
Sentencing was set for April 7th, and his bond was revoked.
Sabetha Police received a call on November 27th of last year that Webster had allegedly broke into an apartment and was threatening the residents.
He allegedly attacked an officer after he arrived on the scene, trying to remove the taser from his belt as both men struggled on the ground. A Kansas Highway Patrol trooper responded to the call for backup and used his taser to subdue Webster, who was then taken into custody.
He was also arrested on two Nemaha County warrants at that time, including one for distributing meth.
The warrant had been issued in early 2015 following an investigation by the Sabetha Police Department, but before an arrest could be made Webster fled the area and was in hiding until his arrest on November 27th.
