A Pike County school principal has been arrested and charged with 
possession of a controlled substance and endangering a minor, Kentucky

property in Virgie.

Police found the boy in the road.

After entering Tacket's house, police said they saw marijuana and other drugs.

He was charged with possession of a controlled substance, a hallucinogen; 
endangering the welfare of a minor; possession of marijuana; and unlawful 
transaction with a minor.

The principal at George F. Johnson Elementary School in Virgie was taken to 
the Pike County Jail.
