Two New London residents were taken into custody late Thursday night following a law enforcement response in rural Henry County.
According to the Henry County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called to a residence in the 2900-grid of Hanson Lane at approximately 11:00 p.m. on April 30th. Authorities arrested 35-year-old Renny McCarty of New London on multiple outstanding warrants.
During the same incident, 35-year-old Ashley Hanson, also of New London, was taken into custody. Hanson is charged with possession of a controlled substance, third or subsequent offense—a Class D felony—and accessory after the fact, an aggravated misdemeanor.
The Henry County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by the Probation and Parole High Risk Unit, Van Buren County Emergency Management, and Lee County Dispatch.
Officials remind the public that a criminal charge is merely an accusation, and all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
