Authorities in Ohio County are searching for a man with a long history of drug trafficking and other arrests dating back at least 15 years.
The Ohio County Sheriff’s Office said deputies, the Pennyrile Narcotics Task Force, Kentucky State Police and Centertown Police Department recently executed a search warrant in the 400 block of Smallhouse Lane in Centertown. During a search of the property, officers located methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Police said the home’s residents, 38-year-old Terry Christopher Roarx and Kimberly White, were not at the residence when officers arrived to serve the warrant. Arrent warrants, though, have been obtained for both Roarx and White.

- A September 2022 arrest in Warren County for trafficking in and possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine)
