(KNZA)--A man, terminated from his job in Holton, is arrested near his former workplace when authorities found him armed with several weapons.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says 20-year-old Steven Battles, of Holton, was taken into custody Tuesday night for aggravated assault and two counts of criminal threat.
Morse says his office received a 911 call around 8:00 about a man armed with a handgun at 925 Pennsylvania Street.
Sheriff's deputies and Holton Police officers responded and stopped Battles leaving the area in a pickup truck. Morse says Battles was found to be in possession of a handgun and two long guns.
Battles remains in the Jackson County Jail.
