Middletown man arrested after police search his home

During the search that included the department’s Special Response Team, five firearms, a substance suspected to be illegal drugs and cash were seized, said Police Chief David Birk. The SRT team was used during the search because of McCathron’s extensive history of drug trafficking and weapons convictions.
