SOUTH CAROLINA — A Maxton man is facing a range of serious charges following a law enforcement operation on Friday, according to the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies arrested 39-year-old Rory Wallen after executing a search warrant at a residence on 184 Carl Street.

Investigators, along with SWAT operators, reportedly seized cocaine, methamphetamine, marijuana, firearms, cash, and drug paraphernalia during the raid.

Wallen is charged with second-degree kidnapping, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, trafficking in cocaine and methamphetamine, possession with intent to manufacture, sell, or deliver a Schedule II controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He is currently being held at the Robeson County Detention Center without bond.
