Then they say he met with the detective on the parking lot of a Paducah business located at 3220 Irvin Cobb Drive in Paducah with money to purchase the methamphetamine.

Miller was arrested.

Deputies say they found crystal methamphetamine, a glass smoking pipe and doses of Hydrocodone on him when he was arrested.

Miller was taken to the McCracken County Regional Jail.

He was on bond in McCracken County for trafficking in methamphetamine and on parole out of Pennsylvania at the time of his new arrest.

The McCracken County Sheriff’s Office was assisted in the investigation by the Marshall County Sheriff’s Office.
