One man out of Eastern Kentucky is now facing several charges after a drug bust.

Floyd County Sheriff’s Department Deputies encountered a man in the Harold Community this week when deputies were following up on a drug trafficking investigation. Deputies later found out that the man was a convicted felon.

48-year-old Bradford Hunt of Hi Hat tried to flee on foot but was shortly captured by police after a short chase.

Deputies found more than 130 grams of meth, prescription pills, Fentanyl, digital scales, plastic bags and cash when they search Hunt.

Hunt was arrested and charged with several counts of drug trafficking, possession of a firearm while being a convicted felon and several other charges.

He was lodged in the Floyd County Jail.
