A top central Kansas law enforcement officer is accused of rape and child molesting after being arrested Tuesday night at his Inman home.
Inman Police Chief Mike Akins is charged with 17 felonies, including rape, indecent liberties and battery, involving four children 14 years old and younger, and two misdemeanor battery counts.
McPherson County deputies and Kansas Highway Patrol members forcibly entered Akins' home to arrest him after he failed to answer the door.
The 38-year-old joined the Inman Police Department in 2005 and became chief in January 2007.
The Kansas attorney general's office and Kansas Bureau of Investigation are handling the case after being asked a week ago to investigate the chief.
Akins was being held in McPherson County Jail on $250,000 bond.
