HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 56-year-old Nickerson man with a long criminal history and already facing trial in one case has been charged in two more.

Michael Curran is now charged with two more counts of distribution of methamphetamine within 1,000 feet of Nickerson High School. The state alleges that the crimes occurred on Feb. 8 and Feb. 19.

Curran has already been charged in another case where law enforcement officers say they found nearly two pounds of methamphetamine, nearly two ounces of marijuana, 30 milligrams of oxycodone pills, a large digital scale, packaging materials, pipes with residue for smoking meth, a 22-caliber handgun, a 22-caliber rifle and $4,000 in cash. That case goes back to March.

Curran will be back in court Wednesday. A preliminary hearing date on the two new charges is expected to be set.
