(KAIR)--An Atchison man goes to jail after being arrested twice in the span of two days, the second time on methamphetamine charges.

“It was 11:00 Friday morning when officers responded to the Dollar General Store located at 727 Kansas Avenue to investigate a shoplifting incident,” said Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson. “54-year-old Maurice Burnett was taken into custody for theft and released on a notice to appear in court.”

Wilson said later at 2:40 a.m. Saturday night, officers responded to a disturbance call at an apartment complex in the 1200 block of North 5th.

“They located Maurice Burnett in a hallway of the complex and subsequently found him to be in possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia and he was taken into custody on those charges.”

Burnett was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
