(KAIR)--Reckless driving lands one Atchison man behind bars on meth charges.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says it was Monday night around 10:00 when officers were alerted of 61-year-old Randall Gilliland driving recklessly heading east on U.S. 59 in Atchison.

“Our officers located and attempted to stop a pickup truck near 14th and U.S. 59,” Wilson said. “The driver fled to the area near 5th and Q Street where he was taken into custody and methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia were found on his person.”

Wilson said he was arrested for fleeing and attempting to elude police, obstructing legal process as well as possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.

Gilliland, who is a registered drug offender in the state of Kansas, was booked into the Atchison County Jail where he remains without bond.
