GEARY COUNTY — A Kansas man is being held on a $100,000 bond after a weekend shooting.

Just before 10:30 p.m. Friday, police responded a home in the 500 Block of West 3rd in Junction City after a report of a man who had shot a weapon in the home, according to a media release.

The man, 21-year-old Michael Smelley, Jr., Junction City, shot the firearm from the house and hit a home across the street, according to police.

After a family member was able to disarm the man as officers made their way up to the residence the man was taken into custody after a brief struggle.

Police reported no injuries.

In addition to aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, police said Shannon Michael Smelley Jr., 21, of Junction City, was arrested in connection with domestic damage to property, domestic aggravated assault, criminal threat, battery on a law enforcement officer, shooting at an occupied dwelling, and felony interference of a law enforcement officer.

Smelley is being held at the Geary County Jail.

Colby beats Barton volleyball in three sets

Posted on

The night couldn’t have gone any worse for the Barton Community College Volleyball team as nothing seemed in sync dropping three quick sets to Colby Community College 25-22, 25-10, and 25-18. The loss is the fifth straight at the Barton Gym to Colby, suffering its third consecutive conference match to open the season dropping to 8-4 while the Trojans’ ninth straight win in the series improves Colby to 9-1 on the season and 2-0 in conference play.

“Disappointed,” said a near speechless Head Coach Brandon Stephenson. “I really thought we were starting to turn the corner this weekend especially in the way we played against Western Nebraska but obviously we have a long way to go.”

As most of the nation took Monday’s Labor Day holiday off from work, in a lot of ways so did the Cougars with a paltry .082 attack on a season three-set low of just twenty-seven assists.

“We are suffering a lot of growing pains,” Stephenson said. “I know I’ve said it before and I keep repeating myself, but this season is definitely going to be a learning curve. Night’s like this will really test us and we’ll find out more about this team real soon.”

Barton will stay in conference play on Wednesday as the Cougars make the short drive south to face Pratt Community College in a 6:30 p.m. first serve at the Dennis Lesh Sports Arena.
It looked promising for the Cougars early in the match taking an early 5-2 lead after a double assist block from Averie Warehime and Kelsie Antcliff. Barton would stay out in front for most of set grabbing their largest lead of the night at 12-8 in forcing Colby to burn a timeout. Barton fought off a 4-0 run shortly thereafter to maintain the lead but Colby stuck around long enough to string a pair of points in breaking the set’s seventh tie causing the Cougars to call a timeout suddenly trailing 22-21. Colby then rattled off two more points for set point as the teams traded the subsequent two tallies as the Trojans stole opening set 25-22.

If the lugnuts holding on the tire were starting to get loose in the first set, Barton was quickly reaching for the spare as Colby grabbed early control taking seven of the first ten points. Gaining the point coming out of a timeout, it was the last point Barton would earn for a while as the Trojans demoralized the Cougars with a 7-0 run in taking a ten point 14-4 lead. With the Cougars unable to string points together but once in the set, Colby struck for a trio of points to grow the lead even more before closing out scoring five of the last six for the 25-10 rout.

Posting her second consecutive and fourth double-double of the season, Carolina Goncalves’ kill began the set with the teams trading two point spurts in battling to an eight point tie. From there it was pretty much all Colby beginning with a 5-0 run to gain separation before breaking open the set outscoring Barton 6-1 for a 17-12 lead. After trading back and forth points, Colby would later put any hope of a Barton comeback stringing a trio of points for the 25-18 match clincher.

JACKSON COUNTY— Law enforcement authorities are investigating a suspect weekend home-invasion.

Just after 11p.m. Saturday deputies received a 911 call of a home invasion in the 12000 block of 174th Road north west of the City of Mayetta in Jackson County, according to a media release.

Law enforcement officers from the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office and the Prairie Band Potawatomi Tribal Police arrived on the scene and arrested Daniel M. Ramirez, 32, Mayetta, inside the residence who allegedly kicked in the home’s front door.

Ramirez is being held on a $15,000 bond in the Jackson County Jail on aggravated burglary and drug charges. The occupants of the residence were at home at the time of the incident, but were unharmed.

Protesters in Kansas City seek more pay for low-wage workers

KANSAS CITY— (AP) — Hundreds of protesters called for higher pay and better treatment during Labor Day rallies.

The Kansas City Star reports that more than 300 protesters turned out in Kansas City Monday for a “Fight for $15” rally. Many of the protesters were scheduled to work but were striking for the holiday, waving American flags and carrying placards.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that several people protested outside a downtown McDonald’s prior to St. Louis’ annual Labor Day parade.

St. Louis enacted a $10 minimum wage in May. Kansas City voters approved a measure last month raising the city’s minimum wage to $10 an hour. Both efforts were voided effective Aug. 28 by a new state law prohibiting local minimum wages above the state’s $7.70.
