GARDEN CITY, Kan. (KWCH) – The Kansas Bureau of Investigation is investigating an incident that occurred Friday afternoon at the Finney County Law Enforcement Center in Garden City.
On Friday, May 30, the Finney County Sheriff’s Office requested KBI assistance. KBI special agents responded.
Preliminary information indicates at around 2:40 p.m., a Garden City man, later identified as 25-year-old Isidro Marino, drove his 2020 Toyota RAV4 off the roadway and struck a 25-year-old woman who was walking in the parking lot of the Law Enforcement Center at 304 N. 9th St.
Marino began to flee the scene when a deputy from the Finney County Sheriff’s Office ran after his vehicle. Marino started to reverse, driving toward the pursuing deputy. The deputy then fired two rounds in the direction of the suspect, however, neither round struck Marino. He fled the area, still driving the SUV.
A short time later, officers from the Garden City Police Department located Marino’s vehicle and a short pursuit ensued before Marino pulled over in the 1200 block of N. 8th St. As officers attempted to take Marino into custody, he kicked one of the officers.
Marino was booked into the Finney County Jail for attempted first-degree murder, fleeing and eluding, and battery of a law enforcement officer. Formal charges are pending. Suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The woman who was hit by Marino’s SUV was treated for her injuries and released from the hospital.
The KBI will conduct a thorough and independent investigation into this incident. When the investigation concludes case findings will be presented to the Finney County Attorney for determination of charges. The investigation is ongoing.
