07/06/2020

(KAIR)--An early Monday morning report of shots fired led Atchison Police to an Atchison residence, but no arrests are yet made.

According to a report from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, the report was made around 1:00 Monday morning that shots had been fired in the 1600 block of Atchison Street.
When Police arrived, they found a 24-year-old man suffering from injuries incurred in a fight during an apparent party, but had not been shot.
Refusing to provide officers with details about the altercation, he was examined at the scene by Atchison County EMS, but was not transported for hospital treatment, choosing to seek medical treatment on his own.
According to Wilson, the investigation revealed that someone at the party had fired a gun into the air, causing party goers to flee, but apparently caused no injuries.
A handgun was located, and seized by police, at the residence.

The investigation is continuing.
