COMPLETE SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
On Thursday,
June 26, 202525, at approximately 12:30 p.m., deputies were dispatched to a
residence in the area of S. State Route J in rural Cass County.
When they
got there, they made contact with a man who stated his granddaughter was
sexually assaulted by a man who was installing floors in the home.
After an
on-site investigation, deputies took 63-year-old Enrique Lopez Martinez of
Kansas City, Kansas, into custody.
Lopez
Martinez has been charged with two felony counts of Statutory Sodomy or
Attempted Statutory Sodomy with a Person Less Than 12 years old.
He’s currently being held at the Cass County Jail with no bond allowed.
On Saturday, June 28, 2025, as the Adrian fireworks and festival was closing and traffic was exiting the park, deputies out on patrol made a traffic stop after a 911 call about a dangerous Careless and Imprudent driver on the interstate.
From the
start of the traffic stop the driver was less than cooperative. Deputies detected a strong odor of alcohol
coming from within the vehicle and the driver refused to exit the vehicle. Deputies were able to make entry into the
vehicle and turned the vehicle off. The
driver began resisting the deputies and a taser was deployed which failed to
have effect. The driver was able to
get the vehicle started again and began to drive away with the deputies
partially in the vehicle. The first
deputy was able to clear himself but had to grab the second deputy and pull him
out, narrowly escaping being dragged down the interstate.
A pursuit
with the truck followed traveling northbound on I49 from Passaic. The Deputies and Adrian Police Officers at
the park responded to the interstate to intercept the pursuit. Every law enforcement officer knew the
importance of getting the Adrian exit ramp shut down to ensure the safety of
all the citizens leaving the park and heading in town or merging onto the
interstate to go northbound. As the
pursuit approached Adrian, the Sheriff, having the largest vehicle in the
fleet, drove down the exit ramp the opposite direction, preparing to use his
vehicle to physically stop the fleeing vehicle from exiting into Adrian. The fleeing truck narrowly missed striking
the Sheriff’s patrol vehicle head on and was forced to stay on the interstate.
As the truck
crossed under the Adrian exit, he emerged on the other side to a sea of patrol
vehicles preventing innocent civilians from entering the interstate. With the interstate clear and the
appropriate amount of assistance, the Grappler Device was deployed. The Grappler did its job and brought the
pursuit to a stop. The driver was
extracted from his vehicle where he continued to resist arrest. After a short scuffle the driver was taken
into custody.
The Driver,
from Oklahoma, will be identified once formal charges are filed.
Sheriff
Anderson says, “This is exactly why law enforcement is important to our
community. This is exactly why we build
positive relationships with our other law enforcement partners, like Adrian
PD. Deputies who were foot patrolling a
family festival, who were there for Community Policing, responded as a team to
protect the families trying to get home after a night of celebrating our great
country’s freedom. Had those deputies
and officers not been there, the driver, who attempted to exit at Adrian, would
have most certainly killed a family. This person showed absolutely no remorse
for his actions after his arrest. He was
an absolute danger to the public prior to the traffic stop, assaulted the
Deputy and became even more of a danger to the hundreds of innocent people
leaving the festival all because of his actions. He picked the wrong night, the wrong county
and chose the wrong direction to run.
I’m extremely proud of the men and women who work in law enforcement
throughout this county. This incident
highlights how fast a law enforcement officers night can change from laughing
and enjoying our community to the very dangerous work we do.”
