(KAIR)--An Atchison man found himself in jail Thursday following a police investigation focused on the illegal discharge of a weapon.
Police Chief Mike Wilson said officers responded Wednesday evening to investigate damage done to a parked vehicle. "A 2005 Suzuki SUV was damaged on Wednesday evening while it was parked in the 800 block of South 4th. Several windows and door panels on the vehicle were damaged by what was determined to be from a shotgun. Police arrested 18-year-old Alex Kelley on Thursday for criminal damage to property and unlawful discharge of a firearm."
Wilson said Kelley lived in the neighborhood where the alleged shooting occurred, and police were able to connect him to the damage.
Following his arrest, Kelley was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
