LOUISA, Ky. — A Lawrence County man has been arrested after a search of his phone turned up 20 images of child porn.

The Kentucky State Police Electronic Crime Branch received a report from the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force that someone with a Verizon phone had been uploading sexually explicit images of minors online.
