Traffic stop leads to arrest

A traffic stop in Laurel County leads to a man being tased early Thursday morning.

A vehicle enforcement officer stopped a truck at the intersection of U.S. 25 and Kentucky 192.

After investigating, the officer learned the driver, Douglas Lord, was wanted out of Tennessee and Gallatin County, Kentucky.

While trying to arrest Lord, the officer had to use his taser.

Lord was taken into custody after that and is facing several charges.
