MAN ARRESTED FOLLOWING LETCHER COUNTY DRUG BUST

A man has been arrested after a drug bust in Letcher County. The Letcher County Sheriff's Office reports that deputies worked with Kentucky State Police on a major drug bust on Thursday night. An attempted traffic stop in the Millstone area led to a chase through Sergent before the driver, identified as Kenneth Fisher, got out and tried to run off before deputies caught him. One pound of meth, 250 Xanax pills, and more than $4,000 was found in his car. Fisher has been charged with drug trafficking, fleeing and evading, and non-eligible license plates. He also had two warrants for his arrest in Pike County and is now being held at the Letcher County Jail.
