(KAIR)--An Atchison man is jailed in connection with an alleged rape. “The victim and the suspect were staying at the same apartment at the time this incident occurred,” Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News, and identified the suspect as John Negonsott. “It was shortly after midnight, on Monday morning, when our officers responded to a residence in the 500 block of North 9th, where a 42-year-old female reported that she was sexually assaulted by a 51-year-old male. The suspect was taken into custody at the scene, and resisted the arrest.”

According to Wilson, Negonsott was taken into custody on charges of rape and interference with law enforcement.

Following his arrest, Negonsott was booked into the Atchison County Jail.

According to online court records, Negonsott has a criminal past involving sex crimes.

In June, 1989 he was convicted in Brown County for one count of aggravated sexual battery.
