TOPEKA, Kan. — A man who was arrested after being shot at by a Topeka police officer remained jailed Sunday in connection with several charges.
Topeka Police said 22-year-old Colten Andrew Hawley was arrested Saturday morning after a confrontation with police. Lt. Manny Munoz said an officer encountered Hawley, who was armed with a gun, in a Motel 6 parking lot and fired at him but didn’t hit Hawley. The officer chased Hawley a short distance before arresting him. Hawley was already wanted in connection with a kidnapping and a parole violation before Saturday.
He is now also facing charges of assaulting an officer and interfering with police.
