Police have captured a Pike County drug trafficking suspect who has eluded them since last spring. Justin Tacket of Freeburn was indicted last March for trafficking meth and heroin but didn’t show up for his arraignment and was declared a fugitive. Mountain Top News reports he was arrested Friday evening and is being held in the Pike County Detention Center on multiple charges including fleeing police and traffic violations following an incident in which he was nearly caught but slipped away in November.
