A shocking incident in Barton County, Kansas, left a babysitter facing a terrifying situation after discovering a man hiding under the bed of a worried child. The man, identified as Martin Villalobos Jr., 27, had a protection order against him to stay away from the property, but had once lived in the home. After a struggle with the babysitter that knocked the child to the ground, Villalobos escaped before being caught the next day after a foot chase.
Villalobos had recently posted bond on charges of criminal threat, domestic battery, and violating a protection order. Additional charges of aggravated burglary, aggravated battery, and child endangerment are also being considered by authorities. The incident has left the community of Great Bend, with a population of around 15,000, in shock and highlights the need for vigilance and safety measures while caring for children. The Barton County Sheriff’s Office commended the babysitter for her quick thinking and bravery in a potentially dangerous situation.
