ATCHISON COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities in Kansas are investigating a suspect wanted in Georgia on multiple allegations.

Just before 9a.m. Thursday a police officer on patrol attempted to stop a Chevrolet Malibu passenger car in the 1000 block South 5th Street in Atchison, according to Police Chief Mike Wildon.

The vehicle continued north on 5th and failed to stop for the officer as the car proceeded to an apartment complex in the 200 block North 3rd where 32-year-old Aaron Bentley III of Atchison was taken into custody. It was subsequently determined that Bentley was wanted on outstanding warrants in Clayton County and Henry County Georgia charging him with robbery and burglary.

Bentley is being held on requested charges of fleeing and attempting to elude, driving while suspended, no insurance, expired tag, and a Clayton County Georgia warrant for robbery and a Henry County Georgia warrant for burglary, according to Wilson.
