(KAIR)--An Atchison man was arrested early Friday morning after police responded to a burglary-in-progress call at the Atchison Wal-Mart store.

According to a report from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, officers responded to the call shortly after 1:00 at the store located at 1920 U.S. 73 Highway.

When they arrived, Wilson said officers found forced entry had been made through a glass door.

He said officers located 30-year-old Aaron Sollars inside the store.

Sollars was taken into custody on charges of aggravated burglary and theft.

He was taken to the Atchison County Jail.

Wilson said there was an employee still working inside the closed store when Sollars forced entry into the business. He said the employee was able to hide and avoid contact with Sollars until officers arrived and took him into custody.

Wilson said Sollars was allegedly found to be in possession of property from the store when he was taken into custody.

Too bad they didnt take him to jail the first time he was apprehended there for causing havoc earlier in the evening. More lazy police work and a chief that fails to lead his team. Par for the course for APD.
