a Hutchinson man who dragged a police
officer with his truck learned his fate
in court today in April police say
61-year-old Luke elchin Bruns assaulted
a Menard's employee who asked him to put
on a mask then while officers were
trying to stop him he trapped officer
Steven sigman's arm in his truck and hit
him with a hammer officer sikman had to
get eight metal Staples in his head John
shows us what happened inside the
courtroom
today in the early afternoon of April
14th Police said Luke Elin Bruns hit a
Menard's employee multiple times over
the head after the employee asked him to
put on a mask officers then pursued elen
Bruns to an intersection where he
refused to get out of his vehicle and
told them to shoot him when officer
Steven sikman reached inside to grab his
keys elen Bruns closed the window on the
officer's arm and smashed into squad
cars he then hit officer sikman in the
head with a hammer every officer at that
scene would have been testified in
shooting this defendant causing death
but they didn't do so because SE was in
the way this defendant is lucky to be
here today in court elim br's attorney
and wife spoke on his behalf but on the
day of the incident to say that I was
dumbfounded by the reports would be a
total understatement Robie Lin Elin Brun
says her husband suffers from depression
anxiety and PTSD from his time in the
military she called him a loving and
hardworking man who regrets what
happened I know for a fact that Luke
wants help and our family really wants
him to get help in the end judge jod
Winters sentenced elchin Bruns to a year
in jail with credit for time served
along with up to 10 years probation
judge Winters says the fact that elen
Bruns has no prior criminal history
waited her decision but she made it
clear that any violations going forward
would result in extended prison time you
endangered the lives of the
victims officer sikman Mr Anthony
Wagner and potentially your own life in
McLoud County John lordson WCCO 4 News
Elon Bruns also has to pay restitution
do community service and he must write
letters of apologies to the victims if
