(KNZA)--A Sabetha man is facing a charge of aggravated assault.
Sabetha Police Chief Robert Wahwasuck says the police department responded Friday to a disturbance in the 13-hundred block of Main Street involving a knife and several individuals.
Wahwasuck says the knife was recovered at the scene and an investigation launched.
A short time later, he says 53-year-old Michael Bankes was taken into custody without further incident.
Bankes was transported and booked into the Nemaha County Jail where he remains on a $25,000 bond. There is also a Kansas Department of Corrections hold on him.
Bankes made his first appearance in a Nemaha County courtroom Monday, where a preliminary hearing was set for January 22nd.
