A Salina man with an outstanding warrant for aggravated indecent liberties with a child was arrested early this morning after an incident involving his ex-girlfriend.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester reported this morning that officers were dispatched to the 700 block of South Ninth Street at 1:30 a.m. Thursday for the report of a burglary in progress and violation of a protection from abuse (PFA) order. The 29-year-old Salina female told officers that she had returned home from work and upon entering her bedroom saw the arm of a subject underneath her bed. Her ex-boyfriend against whom she has a PFA, Matthew Jackson, 30, of Salina, came out from under the bed and left the residence, Forrester explained.

The victim also reported that her Sony Playstation 3 and four games, valued at $140, were missing, he added.

Officers located Jackson in the 200 block of South Ninth Street, but when they attempted to make contact with him, he fled on a bicycle, which was later located at a residence in the 700 block of South Ninth Street, Forrester reported. Jackson was located in the backyard of that residence and taken into custody after a short foot pursuit, he added.

According to Forrester, Jackson had a methamphetamine pipe in his possession and the Playstation and games were located in his backpack that was attached to his bicycle.

Jackson was found to have outstanding warrants in Saline County for aggravated indecent liberties with a child, probation violation, and violation of Kansas registration act, Forrester noted. In addition to those, Jackson also was arrested on the following requested charges, Forrester explained.
