Keller at large after escape from Atchison jail
George Keller, a 20 year old signer from Texas, escaped custody after a window exit from the Atchison jail while en route to Hutchinson reformatory to serve one to five years for a Potter Kansas garage robbery. He reportedly stole money to buy passage to Corpus Christi where his mother lives. Local reports say he is wild and reportedly violent, with authorities needing multiple officers to restrain him during preliminary hearings. Keller claimed Texas as home and may head toward Corpus Christi. Local brief notes report high river stages near Kaw river, police complaints of air rifle use by youths, and a party planned by the Business College students in Holloway Hall.
