 An anonymous tip led to a large drug bust in Floyd County last Friday night. It occurred on September the 6th last Friday at a local hotel here in Prestonsburg. It was a result of anonymous tips that we had received on our anonymous tip line over the last several months. After the investigation, we got all the information together and we were able to obtain a search warrant for that local hotel in a certain room. When we executed that search warrant, we were able to obtain information that the methamphetamine was going to be delivered on that day to that room. After surveillance that day, we were able to intercept the methamphetamine that the accused that brought to the hotel that day had totaled 650 grams of methamphetamine that has a street value of about $65,000. So we were able to get that off the streets or out of Floyd County. And the sheriff's real big on trying to combat the methamphetamine problem as much as possible for our youth. And it turned out that this guy was just 18 years old and he was bringing that large amount into the county. So it's not just the old or the middle age that's affecting everyone and everyone's affected by the methamphetamine problem that we have here in Eastern Kentucky. 18-year-old Scott Logan Reaser of Heinemann was arrested and charged with trafficking in Schedule 1 narcotics and possession of marijuana and launched in the Floyd County Jail. That's a lot of methamphetamine that we got off the streets, 650 grams if you want to imagine. It's like a gram of meth. A lot of people don't understand how you would measure that or whatever but you can think of a sugar packet that you put in your coffee or sweet tea. One sugar packet is equal to about one gram so we got 650 of those off the streets. We get a lot of information from our anonymous tip line and the number for that is 606-949-2020. We get a lot of information. A lot of our investigations begin there and people don't have to leave their name. They just give us the information. We follow up on every tip that's left on there and that's how we start a lot of our investigations is from that anonymous tip line. People feel comfortable calling in not having to give their name. They care about their communities but they don't want to put their name out there so we take those very serious and we follow up on every one of those tips that someone calls in. We're seeing more and more of the so-called drug dealers carrying concealed weapons since the law changed in July of this year also. You don't have to ever permit to carry a concealed weapon in Kentucky now so they're taking advantage of that and we're starting to see a lot more concealed weapons being carried by people that probably shouldn't be carrying the weapons. Anytime someone, if they want to talk in person, the sheriff always has his door open for people to come in and they can stop at our office here in Pressensburg anytime they like or they can call and make an appointment with them. He's always glad to speak with people or they can call if they don't want to put their name out there or their face out there, they can always call the anonymous tip line. Scott Logan was released today on a $2,000 cash bond.
