A Manhattan man waived his preliminary hearing and plead guilty to aggravated battery Friday.
Joshua Foster, 23, was arrested in July after he physically battered a 48-year-old male from Topeka and attempted to force the man to withdraw funds from an ATM. Prior to reaching an ATM the man was able to flee from his attackers and contact police.
Foster’s sentencing is scheduled for March 27.
