(KAIR)--A missing Atchison County inmate has been located.
According to Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, 48-year-old Shawn Jenkins was arrested Wednesday morning, taken into custody on a district court warrant for aggravated escape from custody.
The warrant was issued after Jenkins walked away from Atchison County District Court on September 27.
At the time of his escape, Jenkins had been ordered into custody by Judge Robert Bednar. He was to serve time in custody on the felony charges of flee and elude and interference with law enforcement.
Laurie says Jenkins was taken into custody in Buchanan County, Missouri, and has waived extradition.
