(KAIR)--A search warrant served on an Atchison residence led to one arrest, with an Atchison man now facing drug-related charges.
According to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, the search warrant was served Wednesday in the 800 block of Kearney Street.
The search followed a Sheriff’s Office investigation that led to the allegation that methamphetamine was being sold from the residence.
