(KAIR)--The latest residential burglary in Atchison is under investigation, with nearly $2,000 worth of items, including firearms, taken in the crime.

According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, it happened sometime between 3:35 Friday morning and 1:40 Friday afternoon at a residence in the 300 block of Kansas Avenue.

Taken in the burglary were three firearms, a box of knives, and liquor. All totaled, the value of the missing items holds a total value of $1,850.

The burglary is the latest to happen in Atchison, with police last week launching investigations into three others, all of which occurred while Benedictine College students were away from residences during the extended Easter weekend.

More than $4,000 dollars worth of items, ranging from cash to electronics, were taken in those burglaries.

Forced entry was made into all of the homes. 

Anyone with information related to any of the crimes should contact Atchison Police at 913-367-4323.
