A criminal threat charge is a class 9 felony for when someone adulterates or intentionally contaminates any food or beverage, according the Kansas statute. Jace Hanson, 21, was charged last week with one count of criminal threat in Johnson County District Court for the alleged intentional food contamination. A now-fired employee, 21-year-old Jace Christian Hanson, has been charged with a felony, accused of intentionally contaminating the food between March 26, 2024, and April 23, 2024. Hereford House also said Hanson was a part-time employee who worked at the restaurant for less than a month. Gayla Tocco said she’s been going there for years and can’t believe someone could do that. “You wonder if they were targeting the restaurant, the owner, other customers, people they didn’t like,” said Tocco, a resident.

The man suspected, Jace Hanson, was charged last week with one count of criminal threat. On Thursday, April 25, 2024, police reportedly arrested and charged Jace Christian Hanson, 21, after investigating the potential contamination at the Hereford House restaurant located at 5001 Town Center Drive. Police have arrested and charged a Kansas City, Missouri, man accused of intentionally contaminating food at a restaurant in Leawood. In a statement Tuesday, Hereford House said Hanson was a part-time employee who had worked at the Leawood restaurant for less than a month before he was arrested on April 25.

Once Hanson was taken into custody, “[Hereford House] immediately took all measures and steps to thoroughly clean and sanitize the kitchen in accordance with health department guidelines,” the statement said. “First and foremost, the safety of our customers and staff are paramount to all of us at the Hereford House,” the restaurant said in an emailed response to questions. Johnson County District Attorney Stephen Howe is handling the case and couldn’t say how they believe Hanson contaminated the food, but did share some disturbing details.

According to the LPD, an outside tip from another law enforcement agency led to the arrest on the same day the contamination was brought to the department's attention. I received my bachelor’s degree in journalism from Kent State University and started my career as a business reporter for The Vindicator in Youngstown, Ohio. The restaurant’s statement said Hereford House is “fully cooperating” with the ongoing investigation.
