HUTCHINSON, Kan. – A 22-year-old Hutchinson man who’s on Community Corrections for two other cases finds himself in more trouble with the law.
William Hickey was jailed after he allegedly pulled a knife on his father around 5 p.m. Saturday evening.
Hutchinson police were called to scene on the report of s disturbance and discovered that Hickey had threatened his father with a black pocket knife.
Hickey is charged with aggravated assault and jailed on a $5,250 bond. He was denied a bond reduction by Judge Trish Rose when he appeared for a first appearance via-video from the Reno County Jail Monday morning.
Hickey has been on corrections for aggravated endangerment of a child in one case and attempted criminal threat in the another. He was given 12-months community corrections in the case with an underlying sentence of 18-months in prison.
It was back on June 13, 2013, when Hickey reportedly tortured or cruelly beat a 1-year-old child. This after the child sustained injuries to her face and also her bottom. The state contended that it was no accident, but Hickey contended that he opened a door that tends to stick and the door hit the child.
In the other case he had been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, for threatening his father with a knife. He was also charged with criminal threat for the same incident. That occurring back on May 17, 2012.
He then entered a plea to the reduced charges and was granted corrections.
He’s expected back in court on the new arrest on Wednesday.
