Reward offered in brutal attack on Kansas woman

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A $2,500 reward is being offered for any information leading to an arrest in the rape and burning of a Wichita woman.

The victim of Friday’s attack remained in critical condition Tuesday. No new information about the victim or the attack was released Tuesday.

Police say the 36-year-old woman was raped, beaten and set on fire in Fairmount Park. She was burned over 55 percent of her body.

The park is a block south of Wichita State University’s main campus but investigators have said the victim is not a student and the crime was not associated with the university.

Despite that, the university held a safety forum Tuesday and police have increased patrols on university properties.
