On Saturday, April 5, 2025, at about 1:19 AM, Officers of the Salina Police Department were dispatched to Chuck’s, 600 N. Santa Fe, in reference to a disturbance where a subject had a knife. Upon arrival, officers located blood inside and outside the bar. Witnesses reported several subjects being stabbed and had driven themselves to the hospital.

A suspect description had been provided, and a Kansas Highway Patrol Trooper observed a subject matching the description fleeing from the area on foot. Law enforcement officers located the subject several blocks from the bar and took the subject into custody without incident. The subject was identified as Dylan Michael Henning, 21-years-old, of Salina.

Law enforcement officers were then advised that two victims with stab wounds had arrived at the hospital for treatment. A 24-year-old male of Salina received one stab wound and was admitted to the hospital with a non-life-threatening injury. A 27-year-old male of Salina had three stab wounds and was treated and released.

The investigation determined that the disturbance began in the bar when Henning and a female associate were removed from the bar. While outside the bar, the disturbance continued when Henning is alleged to have produced a knife and stabbed the victims before fleeing the area. Alcohol was a contributing factor.

Henning was booked into the Saline County Jail in reference four counts of Aggravated Battery with a deadly weapon, felony Interference and one count of Disorderly Conduct.

The investigation is on-going. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Salina Police Department.
