Max Lutkins Arrested For Child Abduction; Car Crash In Casper

A man is in custody after law enforcement says he abducted a child from Glenrock, before crashing his vehicle in southwest Casper.

Glenrock Police Chief Tom Sweet says shortly after 9pm Monday, May 5th, officers responded to a call at a residence, and found three people had been assaulted and a small child taken from the home.

The vehicle that the suspect was driving, was later spotted by the Casper Police Department and a chase ensued.

Twenty-one year old Max Lutkins, who was later identified as the driver, eventually crashed his vehicle near the intersection of Indian Paintbrush and Tulip Road and was taken into custody.

The child was recovered and was taken to Wyoming Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

Lutkins made an initial appearance in Converse County Circuit Tuesday morning, and had his bond set at $150,000.

Two of the three people that had been assaulted earlier, also went to Wyoming Medical Center, with non-life threatening injuries.

Natrona County law enforcement says additional charges are pending.
