(KAIR)--An Atchison man is charged with felony criminal damage to property when extensive damage is discovered in a home he once lived in.
Police Chief Mike Wilson says 41-year-old Jeffery Fultz resided in a house he owned in the 1100 block of Hickory Street. A local bank took ownership of the home last summer, and Fultz moved out in the fall. Wilson says when the bank inspected the home last month, the extensive damage was discovered. “Included some damage to a number of walls by some object, such as a hatchet or hammer,” Wilson tells MSC News. “There was also some intentional damage done to a furnace, water heater, supply lines, Quikrete being poured down drains. All totaled, it looked like there was about $10,000 worth of damage done to the residence.”
Wilson says the police investigation launched after the damage was found led to Fultz who was arrested Tuesday on an Atchison County District Court warrant, with County Attorney Jerry Kuckelman formally charging him in connection with the crime.
