(KAIR)--A Huron man is facing numerous charges, stemming from what police say was a threat to shoot someone as well as for his role in an alleged attack on a man during a past Atchison robbery.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News the latest allegations against 31-year-old Charles Walker arise from the alleged threat made Sunday. "He had driven a vehicle to the front of a residence in the 10-hundred block of North 8th around 2 PM. There was a 57-year-old victim out front of the residence, and from his vehicle he made a criminal threat toward a family member of the 57-year-old victim, and while doing so, he had a firearm in his hands while he was in the vehicle."

Wilson says investigators learned that Walker believed he could meet his intended victim at the city's Jackson Park, where he allegedly traveled after leaving the residence. "We did locate Walker's vehicle moving within Jackson Park. He was taken into custody, just outside the park, after a brief pursuit. We did spend sometime looking for evidence, connected to this case, Sunday afternoon in Jackson Park."

Walker was arrested on a charge of criminal threat in connection with the investigation, but was also taken into custody on charges related to what Wilson says was an August 14 robbery. "That incident occurred about 10:30 PM in the 700 block of Kansas Avenue. In that case, a 32-year-old male reported that Walker had struck him in the face and took his cell phone, wallet, and a carrying case, by force."

Walker now faces charges of robbery and battery in connection with that crime.

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