(KAIR)--Police say a woman was held captive at an Atchison residence, abused from Saturday until she was able to flee on Tuesday. “It was shortly before 3 PM on Tuesday afternoon when we were notified by family of a 36-year-old female victim that the victim had resided in the 600 block of North 10th,” Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News. “Over a several day period of time, there had been an incident at this residence which led to this victim fleeing from the residence.” 

Wilson says the the investigation led to the arrest of 34-year-old Atchison resident Glen Buckley, Jr. “The victim reported to us the abuse was occurring last Saturday. There was physical abuse as well as she was restrained from leaving that residence. This continued off and on until Tuesday when she left the residence and was able to contact a family member who, in turn, contacted us.” 

Buckley was taken into custody on charges including criminal restraint, domestic battery, and criminal damage to property, for allegedly damaging a door. 

Wilson says Buckley was additionally arrested on a District Court warrant related to a past case of car theft. “That involved we investigated in mid-December in which a 52-year-old victim reported a vehicle was taken from the 1300 block of Maple.” 

Buckley allegedly told the car's owner he was interested in buying it, but never returned it following a test drive. The vehicle has since been recovered. 

Following his apprehension, Buckley was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
