(KAIR)--A Sunday evening Atchison altercation has led to the arrest of a 19-year-old Atchison man.

According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, Jackson Phillips was arrested Sunday evening for aggravated battery in connection with what Wilson calls “an incident that occurred in a residence in the 1000 block of North 2nd Street” around 5:30 Sunday evening.

According to Wilson, “a group of young men were together in the residence when a disturbance began between” two of them, leaving a 19-year-old man choked and struck in the face with a fist.

Due to his injuries, the man was transported by private vehicle for hospital treatment, and later released, with Phillips arrested in connection with the crime.

Following his Sunday arrest, Phillips was booked into the Atchison County Jail, but was released from custody Monday on a $15,000 bond. His court appearance is scheduled for May 28.
