Two Louisville residents are in custody after they were found in possession of firearms and burning methamphetamine inside a wood stove. According to the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office, authorities with their department, alongside Kentucky State Police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives attempted to serve a search warrant on Highway 1676. Attempts to enter a garage behind the residence did not receive a response, and smoke began to exit the garage. Police eventually made entry, where they found a wood burning stove and the floor of the garage on fire. After the fire was contained, 43-year-old Thomas Soble was located inside the garage in possession of an empty holster. A stolen 9MM pistol and bag of methamphetamine were also located.
