From the Great Bend Police Department
On Oct. 28, at approximately 11:48 p.m., an officer with the Great Bend Police Department was dispatched to Kwik Car Wash, located at 4920 10th Street, Great Bend, in reference to a reported domestic disturbance.
Upon arrival, the officer contacted the victim, who reported that she was at the car wash when her ex-boyfriend, identified as 25-year-old Blake Sheets, arrived and parked next to her vehicle.
The victim stated that as she attempted to leave, Sheets opened the driver's side door, grabbed her, and attempted to remove the keys from the ignition. Following a brief struggle, Sheets returned to his vehicle and accelerated rapidly toward the victim's vehicle while she was still inside.
Officers subsequently located Sheets at his residence, where he was taken into custody. He was transported to the Barton County Jail and booked in lieu of bond. Requested charges are Aggravated Burglary, Aggravated Assault and Domestic Battery.
This incident is still under investigation. Anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to contact the Great Bend Police Department at 620-793-4120, Crime Stoppers at 620-792-1300 or online at p3tips.com.
