DeAndre Turner-Fults

(KAIR)--The fourth man, wanted in connection with a Tuesday night armed threat, has been arrested.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says 23-year-old DeAndre Turner-Fults was arrested Thursday.

He was taken into custody on an Atchison County District Court warrant for aggravated assault.

Wilson says Turner-Fults was one of four who are alleged to have gone to an Atchison apartment, brandished guns, and made threats, prior to firing off the weapons as they left the residence in the 500 block of North 9th Street. “The two victims, aged 23 and 25, reported that four men appeared outside their apartment door making threats, as two of the suspects displayed a handgun and a shotgun. The four suspects then left the apartment area and the victims heard a number of gunshots."

Wilson says the warrant for the arrest of Turner-Fults was issued after he allegedly fled the scene of the crime in a vehicle.

The other three suspects, Bryan Davis, Jr., Daishon Johnson, and Jameel Kirkland, all of Atchison, are alleged to have fled on foot, and were arrested within minutes after police arrived on the scene.

Following his arrest Thursday, Turner-Fults was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
