A southern Illinois man is headed to prison after his probation was revoked.

The Union County State's Attorney says 24-year-old Wesley Allen Conkle of Dongola has been sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to one count of Aggravated Stalking.
Conkle was arrested in October 2018 following an investigation by Union County Sheriff's Deputies. He repeatedly called and texted a woman in June 2018 who had an active order of protection against him.

Conkle was also sentenced to a concurrent term of three years in prison on one count of Possession of Methamphetamine. He was placed on probation for that offense in May 2017 and his probation was revoked based upon the Aggravated Stalking conviction.
