Justin Mayhugh/Crittenden County Detention Center mugshot
A multi-agency law enforcement operation led to the arrest of a Kuttawa man on a weapon charge during a weekend search in Lyon County.
The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office reports that deputies, along with members of the Western Kentucky Violent Crime Task Force, Kentucky State Police, and Eddyville Police Department, executed a search warrant at a residence on Green Road off Chestnut Oak Road Saturday afternoon as part of an ongoing investigation into a burglary and theft reported earlier this month.
During the search, authorities reported finding multiple pieces of evidence and arrested 36-year-old Justin Mayhugh, charging him with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. He was booked into the Crittenden County Detention Center.
Sheriff Brent White noted that additional charges are pending and the investigation remains ongoing.
