An Eldon-area man is taken into custody after deputies from the Miller County Sheriff’s Office and members of the Mid-Missouri Drug Task Force converge on a residence off Allen Road to serve up a narcotics search warrant.

During the search, a large amount of methamphetamine, a pistol, drug paraphernalia, and items used to manufacture meth and anhydrous ammonia were discovered and seized.

62-year-old James Holloway is formally charged with trafficking drugs, manufacturing a controlled substance, unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia.

Bond was set at $400,000.
