(KAIR)--An alleged threat made with a firearm during an Atchison domestic disturbance sent an Atchison man to jail.

30-year-old Anthony Simon was arrested Thursday on charges of aggravated assault and domestic battery.

Simon's arrest, according to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, came after Atchison Police Officers, shortly before 9:00 Thursday night, "responded to a domestic disturbance in the 300 block East P Street," with the investigation determining "that a domestic battery had occurred against a 38 year old victim and during the disturbance a firearm was used in a threatening manner."

Simon was not at the address when police arrived, but he was located a short time later at another location where he was taken into custody. Following his arrest, Simon was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
