(KAIR)--An Atchison man is facing drug related charges, along with other infractions, following his arrest last week.
Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News when officers detained Perez Smith, the 33-year-old failed to cooperate, giving them a fake name. “About 6:30 Wednesday evening we had an officer saw a subject in the area of 6th and Kearney who he believed we had an active, outstanding warrant for. He dealt with that 33-year-old man, and at first, that person gave him a fictious name. His true identity was determined, and he was taken into custody on an outstanding failure to appear warrant. When he was taken into custody, he was found to be in possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Smith, following his arrest, was booked into the Atchison County Jail, facing charges of possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, obstructing legal process, and a District Court warrant for failure to appear.
