01/19/2016

(KAIR)--A weekend traffic stop leads to the recovery of a stolen vehicle, and to the arrest of a Saint Joseph man in connection with the crime. 

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says it happened Sunday night around 9:30. "The officer on patrol stopped a Dodge Caravan in the 300 block of North 10th on a traffic violation," Wilson tells MSC News. "During that stop, it was determined that that vehicle had been reported stolen by a rental car company out of Saint Joe, Missouri. The vehicle recovered was later released to that rental company in St. Joe." 

Arrested for possession of stolen property was 31-year-old Charles Schenecker, who was also taken into custody on an unrelated Elwood, Kansas Municipal Court warrant for failure to appear. 

He was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
