(KAIR)--A report of shots fired Tuesday night led Atchison Police to an Atchison residence, and to the arrest of a Missouri man.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News police located 19-year-old Ross Kellerman who the initial investigation points to as the likely shooter. “Shortly before 10:30 Tuesday evening, our officers responded to a shots fired call in the area of 21st and Main. That call resulted in an investigation that led officers to a residence in the 300 block of South 21st, where there were several individual inside. Officers, at that residence, located a handgun, as well as marijuana, inside the residence, and a 19-year-old Windsor, Missouri man was taken into custody.”

Wilson said it’s not immediately clear why the gun was being fired. “We do believe that we have the person identified associated with the handgun that could very likely be the gun that had been shot. We know that nobody was injured. We’re not sure, at this point as the investigation continues, as what the motivation was behind the person that fired the shots. We do know that the person that we connected to this firearm is a felon, and is prohibited from possessing a handgun.”

Kellerman was taken into custody on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Following his arrest, Kellerman was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
