(KAIR)--An inquiry into a possible shoplifting case leads to the suspect vehicle, which, in turn, lands one man behind bars, in part for his alleged possession of meth.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News while the Monday afternoon shoplifting investigation revealed no actual crime had been committed, that call did lead to the arrest of Lansing resident Corey Gray, who was wanted on a warrant. “At 4:30 on Monday afternoon, our officers were searching for a vehicle connected to an investigation at a downtown business,” Wilson says. “That vehicle was located in the 700 block of Kansas Avenue, with two occupants. Gray, of Lansing, was taken into custody on a Leavenworth County warrant for criminal use of a financial card, and during that arrest, a small baggie containing methamphetamine was found on his person.”

The 32-year-old Gray was booked into the Atchison County Jail, following his late afternoon arrest, both on the charge related to meth possession and for the out of town warrant.
