NEW YORK (AP) — Chipotle says it has been served with a federal grand jury subpoena as part of a criminal investigation tied to a norovirus outbreak this summer at one of its restaurants in California.

The investigation is being conducted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California in conjunction with the Food and Drug Administration, the company said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission Wednesday.

Chipotle Mexican Grill says the subpoena requires it to produce a “broad range” of documents.

The Denver company has been reeling since an E. coli outbreak linked to its restaurants, which was followed up by a separate norovirus outbreak in Boston. Chipotle says it expects sales for the fourth quarter to be down 14.6 percent.

HUTCHINSON -The man arrested after a domestic incident and nearly six-hour standoff with Hutchinson Police on Christmas Eve was back in court Tuesday for the formal reading of charges.

Charles Mendenhall III, 34, is charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, criminal discharge of a firearm and criminal threat and two counts of aggravated endangerment of a child, including a 15-year-old and a 9-year-old.

Mendenhall was taken into custody without incident after the standoff. The alleged woman victim inside the residence at 707 Pierce was released unharmed.

The children were in the home when it started around 6:30 that morning, but they apparently left the home and the 15-year-old daughter reported what was going on to police.

She told police that she was awakened by the sound of dishes breaking and then saw the defendant pointing a gun to her mother’s head and, at some point, threatened to blow her mother’s brains out.

In court, Mendenhall was told to have no contact with the victims, but the main victim was in the courtroom and asked that the order not be put in place.

Magistrate Judge Cheryl Allen denied the request, saying it would be in place, at least for now.

Mendenhall is free on bond and his case will now move to a waiver-status docket on January 27.

GARDEN CITY – Law enforcement authorities in Finney County are investigating a suspect in connection with an April robbery of a liquor store in Garden City, according to a media release from police.

During the course of the investigation physical evidence was submitted to the Kansas Bureau of Investigations for forensic testing.

As a result of the testing a suspect was identified as Lance Tyler, 40, Billings, Mont.

Further investigation revealed that Tyler was wanted in West Virginia for an armed robbery that occurred two days prior to the Garden City robbery.

Following the issuance of a warrant from the Finney County District Court the Garden City Police Department worked with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States
Marshals Service Violent Offender Task Force to locate the suspect.

Tyler was arrested in Billings by the Task Force, where he was found to be in possession of a firearm.

On January 5, 2016 Tyler was extradited to the Finney County jail on suspicion of aggravated robbery.

Just after 11 a.m. on April 1, the Garden City Police Department was dispatched to Chappel Liquor, 1715 E. Business 50, for a reported robbery. The investigation revealed that a black male in his mid- to late 30s entered the business armed with a firearm and took and undisclosed amount of money from the business. He then fled the area northeast on foot.

Schools in the area were notified of the incident. No employees were injured during the robbery.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas’ top prosecutor wants to know why the state’s concealed carry firearm licenses aren’t being honored in Virginia.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt requested an explanation Tuesday of Virginia’s legal reasoning.

Last month, Virginia announced it was dropped reciprocity agreements with 25 states, including Kansas. Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, a Democrat, said the concealed weapons laws in the dropped states don’t meet Virginia’s standards.

Schmidt said in a news release that Virginia’s decision was a “surprise and a tremendous disappointment to many law-abiding Kansans who hold concealed carry licenses.”

Schmidt says Virginia first recognized Kansas licenses in February 2014 after six years of periodic discussions between the two states. He says he is unaware of any changes in Virginia law since then that would have explained the reconsideration.
