(KAIR)--An Atchison man, accused of climbing onto the roof of a downtown Atchison business in order to break-in, has been arrested.
Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News Dennis Wolfe allegedly made the attempt early Monday morning, but was thwarted when officers arrived and found him hiding on the roof. "It was shortly after midnight, on Monday morning, when the officers responded to the 700 block of Commercial, where a subject was seen on the roof of a downtown building. Once upon the roof, he had pried open a screen and a window on the second floor of Poor Richards, but was taken into custody before he actually made entry."
The 47-year-old Wolfe faces a charge of burglary.
Following his arrest, Wolfe was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
