(KAIR)--An investigation that began in 2020 has led to the arrest of a 21-year-old Atchison man on charges for rape and aggravated sexual battery.

According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, Joseph Gill was taken into custody Monday on an Atchison County District Court warrant charging him with the crimes.
Following his arrest, Gill, who was also arrested on a Municipal Court warrant for failure to appear in court, was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
His bond is set at $500,000.

According to Wilson, Gill's arrest stems from an Atchison Police investigation launched on October 25, 2020, the date of Gill's alleged crimes, which involved a female victim.
