Two facing charges following search of North McPherson home

Two Hopkinsville men were taken into custody on North McPherson Avenue Thursday morning. 

According to the report from the Hopkinsville Police Department, officers responded to a residence in the 100 block of North McPherson to execute a search warrant and 19-year-old Jordan Houchens was served with a warrant for first-degree rape and unlawful transaction with a minor-illegal sex act against a victim under the age of 16. 

A search of the home led to the reported discovery of a bag shoved inside of a hole in the ceiling of the kitchen that contained nine grams of methamphetamine, marijuana and drug paraphernalia. 

That led to the arrest of 19-year-old Kameron Serrano, who was charged with trafficking in meth, tampering with physical evidence and possession of marijuana.
