ATCHISON COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a Kansas man on new charges after an arrest.

On Thursday, police arrested 31-year-old  Jacob D. Camp of Atchison on a Municipal Court warrant for failure to appear in court, according to Police Chief Mike Wilson.

In August of 2022, police investigated a theft of a financial card from a residence in the 400 block Mound in Atchison.

Just after 6p.m. Sunday, police arrested Camp and 32-year-old Mary C. McDonald in the case.

McDonald was accused of unlawful entry into a residence and taking a financial card belonging to a 70-year-old victim.

Camp was jailed on requested charge that involved unlawfully using that financial card at several area retail stores in amounts totaling around $850.
