A man with numerous arrest warrants is facing additional charges after crashing his vehicle into a mobile home.

Deputies and detectives from Graves and McCracken counties were conducting a surveillance operation while attempting to locate and arrest 21-year-old Keon K. Boyd.

Detectives pulled into the Boaz area off of Highway 849 after reportedly noticing Boyd driving a vehicle.

Deputies say Boyd immediately attempted to get away from them by speeding through a yard, which resulted in Boyd hitting a mobile home.

A search of the vehicle reportedly uncovered methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia, a handgun, cash, marijuana, scales, baggies, and other items.

Boyd was wanted on five outstanding warrants charging him with the following:

• second degree bail jumping on an underlying drug possession charge;
• second degree bail jumping on an underlying sexual misconduct charge;
• failure to appear on charges of promoting contraband, first degree robbery, first degree unlawful imprisonment, first degree wanton endangerment, and first degree burglary;
• failure to appear on a trafficking charge;
• failure to appear for assessment.

Additionally, Boyd is also being charged with first degree possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine), possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, fleeing or evading, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and no operators license.

He was lodged in the Graves County Jail.
