(KAIR)--Two Washington, Kansas teenagers go to jail after a brief vehicle pursuit through downtown Atchison.
“It was shortly after 10 pm on Wednesday night when we had an officer attempt to stop a gray Ford passenger vehicle in the downtown area,” Wilson said. “The vehicle fled from the officer but was stopped about four blocks north of downtown. There was a driver and two passengers in the vehicle.”
That's Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson.
He said the driver, 19-year-old Stephen Welch was arrested on charges of attempting to elude, driving while suspended. Additionally, Wilson said a small quantity of marijuana was found on his person, and he faces a possession of marijuana charge as well.
One of the passengers, 18-year-old Amanda Bush also faces a possession of marijuana charge.
Both were booked into the Atchison County Jail.
