(KNZA)--A Topeka, man, accused of attempting to run another vehicle off the road, all while two children were inside his vehicle, now faces a number of related charges in Jackson County.

A release from Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says 25-year-old Kaleb Johnson was arrested September 8, after the Sheriff's Office, that afternoon around 4:00, received a traffic complaint of a gray passenger vehicle unable to maintain its lane.

Responding deputies, through their investigation, allege that Johnson drove recklessly, swerving in front of another vehicle, causing it to nearly leave the roadway, while swerving across multiple lanes of traffic.

Once stopped, Johnson was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, two counts of aggravated child endangerment, reckless driving, and driving with an expired registration.

Once Johnson was in custody, he was booked into the Jackson County Jail.
