HUTCHINSON– One of three people charged with aggravated intimidation of a witness, aggravated battery, aggravated burglary was ordered to prison in another case Thursday.

Joshua Rund, 39, who entered pleas in three cases was sentenced to nearly 22 years in prison, but then granted three years community corrections.

However, Judge Tim Chambers, who found Rund had violated the conditions of his corrections, ordered him to prison and reduced the sentence to ten years.

Rund was convicted in a number of drug cases in 2012 and 2013.

Rund, Joshua Bradbury and Michala Cooprider are accused of attacking a Hutchinson woman in her home while she was in bed.

Lacy Lomax was beaten so badly, she had to be taken to the hospital for treatment. She was allegedly attacked because she may have given information to law enforcement in McPherson County over a burglary case.

An officer from McPherson testified Thursday morning about the burglary during a corrections violation hearing.
