(KAIR)--Six vehicle burglaries, involving theft, were investigated early Wednesday morning in Atchison with a 25-year-old Atchison man now in custody.
According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, Kyler Reynolds is accused not only of the latest cases, but also for one occurring earlier this month and another early last month.
Items taken during the burglary of the vehicles include purses, cash, financial cards, and duffel bags.
Wilson, in the release, says officers were investigating the Wednesday morning cases, and following leads, when Reynolds was spottled riding a bicycle in the area of 4th Street and U.S. Highway 59. According to Wilson, Reynolds allegedly tried to flee, but was apprehended near 2nd and Main Streets.
Reynolds, who faces charges for burglary and theft, was also arrested Wednesday morning on an Atchison County District Court warrant for failure to appear in court in connection with previous burglary and theft cases.
