According to a report from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, Atchison Police Officers Saturday afternoon spotted an unoccupied vehicle parked in the River Front area of Atchison’s River Road, and launched an investigation.
A girl was observed by officers heading west, on foot, from the area, and was later found hiding in a tree-lined area of North Terrace.

They are identified as 20-year-old Johnathan McClain and 21-year-old Nicholas Jackson, both of Des Moines.
According to Wilson, the two men were arrested for felony contributing to a child’s misconduct and interference with law enforcement.
Following their arrests, McClain and Jackson were both transported to the Atchison County Jail.
They are held on bonds of $10,000 each.
The teen was placed in temporary care, pending her return to Iowa.
