Former police chief convicted in Reno County stalking case

By the Associated Press:

A jury has convicted a former central Kansas police chief of several felony counts brought against him in a domestic stalking case.

A Reno County jury found Brian Treaster guilty Wednesday of stalking and criminal threat, as well as misdemeanor counts of violation of a protection order and battery. Treaster was acquitted of two counts each of phone harassment and disorderly conduct and a second count of violating a protection order.

The charges stemmed from incidents in 2019, when Treaster confronted his ex-wife at her workplace while he was still Bushton’s police chief, then later confronted and shoved the woman’s boyfriend and made threatening calls to the pair.
