(KNZA)--A Wichita man, who had a nationwide extraditable warrant out for his arrest, was taken into custody Thursday night in southern Jackson County following a traffic stop.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse said a sheriff's deputy stopped a vehicle driven by 35-year-old Michael Burris III near 118th Road and U.S. 75 Highway around 11:30 for a traffic violation.
During the traffic stop, Morse said the deputy believed Burris was providing false information about his identity. A possible ID was discovered, and it was learned Burris was wanted out of Reno County for aggravated assault, distribution of opiates and numerous other charges.
Following his arrest, Burris was transported to the Jackson County Jail. He faces a local charge of felony interference for providing false information.
