Pretrial and arraignment is the next legal step in an aggravated robbery case moving through Lyon County District Court.
Tyler Stephen Seifert, age 39 of Topeka, was set for an Aug. 9 hearing date after his preliminary hearing Wednesday. He has charged with six counts, including two of aggravated assault and one each of kidnapping, aggravated robbery, aggravated battery and criminal discharge of a firearm.
Charges stem from an alleged shooting and standoff incident in the 700 block of State from late April. One person had a non-life-threatening gunshot wound and was taken by ambulance to Newman Regional Health for treatment. Seifert also allegedly barricaded himself and several other people inside the house before surrendering to authorities.
