May 28 - A man suspected of trying to run over abortion protestors may have been involved in another violent attack.

Thursday night, a man reportedly tried to run over people at an abortion protest. That suspect was still on the loose when police say the man was involved in another violent attack.

The man is now in the Sedgwick County jail. The arrest came and the crimes were connected after police say the suspect doused his wife with gasoline and tried to light her on fire.

Operation Rescue West say it was a routine protest for them, until they say someone tried to run over them. The group was protesting near a clinic workers' home when they say a white truck pulled up over the curb, nearly hitting a woman an child.

When police arrived the suspect was gone. He was driving a 2004 Dodge Pickup truck. The tag number checked back to a business in Texas.

But soon enough, police would once again encounter the man they now believe was driving the truck.

Just after 4 a.m. Friday, police received another call from a woman who claimed her husband had just come home after a night of drinking. She says when she tried to leave he held her against her will, chased her with a knife then poured gasoline on her and tried to light her on fire.

24-year-old Steven Bowring was arrested and faces several felony charges including aggravated assault, terrorist threat and criminal restraint.

In the driveway police say they found Bowring's truck. It's the same truck police now say was involved in the earlier ordeal.

Bowring remains in custody. Investigators say they will seek additional charges stemming from the protest incident.
