An Eastern Kentucky man is now facing a list of charges following a recent drug bust. 

Floyd County Sheriff’s Deputies were in the Harold Community, following up on a drug trafficking investigation, when they are said to have encountered a man whom they later discovered was a convicted felon. 

Officers say that 48-year-old Bradford Hunt, of Hi Hat, attempted to run away, but was captured after a brief chase. 

When deputies searched the man, they uncovered over 130 grams of meth alongside Fentanyl, prescription pills, plastic baggies, digital scales, and cash. 

He was arrested and charged with several counts of drug trafficking, possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, and other charges. 

Hunt was taken to the Floyd County Jail.
