Upon arrival, deputies discovered that a female victim had been severely battered. During the incident, the suspect allegedly attempted to run over the victim with a vehicle before fleeing the scene.
Through their investigation, deputies identified the suspect as Mathew Hudson and obtained a description of the vehicle, along with information regarding possible locations where he may have fled.
With the cooperation of the **Miami County Sheriff’s Office**, the suspect’s vehicle was located, and information indicated that Hudson was inside a residence in Miami County.

The Linn County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the Miami County Sheriff’s Office and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation for their assistance, cooperation, and partnership in safely apprehending the suspect.
