Babysitter Checking for 'Monster' in Child's Room Finds Man Hiding Under the Bed: Police
On Monday, March 24, at around 10:30 p.m. local time, authorities responded to "a reported disturbance call" at the 2000 block of Patton Road, which is just outside the city of Great Bend, the Barton County Sheriff's Office confirmed in a Facebook post on March 26.
"Upon arrival the deputies contacted the victim who stated she was babysitting children at the residence. When putting the children to bed, one child complained there was a 'monster' under their bed," police said.
"When the victim attempted to show the child there was nothing under the bed, she came face-to-face with a male suspect who was hiding there. An altercation ensued with the babysitter and one child was knocked over in the struggle. The suspect then fled the scene before deputies arrived," the post added.
Martin Villalobos Junior, 27, has since been arrested and transported to Barton County Jail, officers confirmed. The post stated that the suspect had once lived at the residence but there was "currently a protection from abuse order issued against him to stay away from the property."
Despite being unable to locate Villalobos Junior after searching the area on the evening he was found under the bed, officers continued to look for him the following morning.
"The suspect was seen in the 2000 block of Patton Road at which point he attempted to flee from law enforcement. After a short foot pursuit, the suspect was captured," the police post stated.

Brooke Hogan Says Police Body Cam Footage and 911 Tapes ‘Contain' Critical Information About the ‘Mystery' of Hulk Hogan's Death
The professional wrestler died at the age of 71 on July 24 NEED TO KNOW Hulk Hogan died at the age of 71 on July 24 One week later, PEOPLE confirmed that he died of acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, His daughter, Brooke Hogan, has questions regarding the circumstances of her father's death that were expressed in a lengthy Instagram Stories statement Brooke Hogan has questions regarding the circumstances of her father Hulk Hogan's death. The professional wrestler died at the age of 71 on Thursday, July 24. TMZ was first to share the news, and said that medics were sent to Hogan's home in Clearwater, Fla., after he reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest. One week later, PEOPLE confirmed that he died of acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack. According to medical records obtained by PEOPLE, the superstar had a history of leukemia and atrial fibrillation, a common disorder that causes irregular heartbeats. His history of leukemia, a form of cancer that affects white blood cells, was not previously known. The records included approval for Hogan to be cremated. On Wednesday, Aug. 20, Brooke went on her Instagram Stories to post a lengthy statement about what she does and does not know about her father's death, noting that she's shared the information with her brother Nick, "who is boots on the ground with everything" as well. Brooke claimed that she has received "legit calls from professionals- from police officials to nurses that were supposedly with my dad on the day of his death telling ME I need to see body cam footage and I need to get a hold of the 911 tapes because they supposedly contain information that could potentially shed enough light to change the narrative." She said that those professionals "feel so passionately about what they witnessed, they have continued to contact me and push me to find specific answers to this very day." "I do not have answers as to if the officials who have contacted me about what they witnessed relayed this information to the medical examiner's office," she said. "And if they did, I do not know why it wasn't taken into consideration." Hogan was laid to rest in a private funeral in Clearwater on Tuesday, Aug. 5, which Brooke did not attend. She said she has no information as to whether if or when her father would be cremated. Her brother told her that there would be an autopsy, but Brooke declared that any information from the autopsy would be kept private. Brooke mentioned, however, that "All body cam footage and 911 dispatch calls are not available via the freedom of information act" and that she does not know why it's "on lockdown." She also debated whether she should question the fact that Hogan's primary care doctor certified his cause of death. Brooke said she ultimately has "zero control" over the situation and that "it's all up to my dad's wife [Sky Daily]," as those are the "rules" she's been told. Before Hogan's death, he and Brooke were estranged, and she removed herself from his will. She, however, has denied having any "beef" with Sky Daily. "I have to trust that my brother is doing his best to get answers," said Brooke. "At the end of the day, answers would be great, but none of it brings my dad back. And my hands are tied." Brooke said that she and her family are "already dealing with enough" and that she "will not be talking about this mystery anymore."
