(KAIR)--An Atchison man, under investigation for wildlife-related crimes, has been formally charged for unrelated crimes in Doniphan County.

34-year-old Andrew Feek was arrested February 13, and made his first appearance in Doniphan County District Court February 21.

He is formally charged with felony counts of possession of methamphetamine and possession of a firearm by a felon.

He remains under investigation by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism, with additional charges possible.

Captain Dan Melson, of the state wildlife office, told MSC news last week that the investigation into Feek’s alleged crimes is continuing. “[We are] still analyzing what evidence we have, compiling reports, and what’s going to be charged at this point forward will be in communication with the Doniphan County Attorney.”

Melson added that it may still be sometime before additional charges are filed as investigators continue to evaluate evidence and put the case together.

Feek’s next court appearance is scheduled for Thursday morning.

He remains in custody at the Doniphan County Jail, held without bond.
