Local man arrested for meth possession

An investigation on East 20th Street Wednesday morning led to the arrest of a man on methamphetamine possession.

Officer Adam Robertson and Lt. Adam Smith were called to 113 East 20th for a possible burglary in progress and found 47-year old Ronald Livingston of Hopkinsville and a woman on the back patio of the vacant residence.

An arrest citation says Livingston kept reaching into his pockets and a search of his person allegedly revealed a container with a small baggie of meth inside.

Livingston was lodged in the Christian County Jail for possession of methamphetamine.
