Items seized in apartment raid at 416 Atchison Street/Credit: Atchison Co Sheriff's Office
(KAIR)--An arrest is made, and drugs, a gun, and cash seized, following the execution of a search warrant Thursday morning.
Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie told MSC News Deputies responded to 416 Atchison Street in search of 41-year-old Landon Bain, Sr., who was wanted on felony warrants for methamphetamine distribution.
Laurie said Bain saw the deputies from a door of the apartment, but his attempt to run didn't last long. “He did flee from the apartment and ran north across the street where a deputy was able to take him into custody without really any incident.”
With Bain in custody, Laurie said a search warrant was executed at the address, which is located within 1,000 feet of the Atchison Middle School. “We did locate methamphetamine, cocaine, some drug paraphernalia, and also a handgun that we seized there. Also, a good amount of cash that was seized on his person.”
Bain was arrested on charges including distribution of methamphetamine within 1,000 feet of a school, distribution of cocaine within 1,000 feet of a school, possession of drug paraphernalia, felony interference with law enforcement, and possession of a firearm by a felon.
Following his arrest, Bain was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
Laurie said the warrants that led to Bain's apprehension stemmed from investigations his office conducted within the last month.
