(KNZA)--Two Hoyt men were arrested on drug charges following the execution of a search warrant Saturday evening in Jackson County.

According to Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, deputies assisted the Hoyt Police Department in locating a man with an outstanding warrant in the Hoyt area. Officers found 52-year-old Jason McClane at a residence in the 200 block of Annetta Avenue in Hoyt, where he surrendered without incident on a Denison Municipal Court warrant.

During a follow-up investigation, deputies developed probable cause for a search warrant related to suspected illegal drug activity at the home. The warrant was later approved and executed by deputies.

Inside the residence, deputies allegedly found methamphetamine, marijuana, and drug paraphernalia. The home is located within 1,000 feet of a school.

Fifty-year-old John Hudson was arrested on multiple charges, including distribution of methamphetamine within 1,000 feet of a school, possession of methamphetamine, marijuana and drug paraphernalia, along with no drug tax stamp.

McClane also faces charges of possession of methamphetamine, marijuana, and drug paraphernalia, in addition to the outstanding municipal court warrant.

Both men were booked into the Jackson County Jail.
