(KAIR) -- A 21-year-old Atchison man has pleaded guilty to charges in connection with a December convenience store burglary.
John Portis pled guilty Monday to charges of conspiracy to commit burglary, felony obstruction and felony theft. In exchange, a count of burglary was dismissed.
Portis and a juvenile were arrested for conspiring to break into Quick Stop east in Atchison.
