Officials with Letcher County Sheriff’s Office say their deputies teamed up with Kentucky State Police on a major drug bust Thursday night.

We’re told an attempted traffic stop in the Millstone area led to a chase through Sergent and Millstone before the driver stopped the car, got out and attempted to run off before deputies caught the man, later identified as Kenneth Fisher.

A search of his car revealed more than one pound of meth, 250 Xanax pills and more than $4,000.

Fisher faces charges of drug trafficking, fleeing and evading and one charge for non-legible license plates. Additionally, he had two felony warrants out of Pike County.

He is being held at the Letcher County Jail.
