HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 56-year-old Nickerson man with a long criminal history is jailed on a $500,000 bond after his arrest Thursday on drug distribution charges.

Officers served a high-risk “no-knock” search warrant at 106 S. Paine in Nickerson, the home of Michael Curran.

During the search, officers 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.

He faces potential charges of possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of methamphetamine with intent to sell, possession with intent to sell opioids, possession of drug paraphernalia and criminal possession of a firearm.

Deputy District Attorney Tom Stanton was in the courtroom Friday morning and Magistrate Judge Cheryl Allen agreed the bond would stay the same.

Curran will be back in court for the reading of formal charges next week.
